The primary focus of the survey was on wages and working conditions, particularly those relevant to living wages, such as working hours, types of work contracts, and in-kind payments. The main objective of this report is to provide valuable insights to CNV Internationaal&#8217;s trade union partners in Cambodia, aiding them in their minimum wage negotiations and other dialogues at the national level. The report is structured into three sections: the first section outlines the general characteristics of the surveyed workers, the second section presents the findings related to living wages, and the third section provides conclusions and recommendations. In presenting the results of the 2023 survey, we make comparisons with the results from the pilot survey conducted in 2022. The purpose of these comparisons is to highlight changes in the past year. Additionally, a methodological note is included at the end of the report to provide further details about the survey&#8217;s approach and methodology. Key takeaways are presented in the first pages of this report.<\/p>\n<p>For more information, please download the full report below.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text]<style type=\"text\/css\" data-type=\"the7_shortcodes-inline-css\">#default-btn-fe1bd1b4ba572194158b2bb6e8c1bca9.ico-right-side > i {\n  margin-right: 0px;\n  margin-left: 8px;\n}\n#default-btn-fe1bd1b4ba572194158b2bb6e8c1bca9 > i {\n  margin-right: 8px;\n}\n<\/style><a href=\"https:\/\/rbh-eurochamcambodia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Making-the-Case-for-Higher-Wages-in-the-Cambodian-Garment-Sector.pdf\" class=\"default-btn-shortcode dt-btn dt-btn-m link-hover-off btn-inline-left \" id=\"default-btn-fe1bd1b4ba572194158b2bb6e8c1bca9\"><span>Download File<\/span><\/a>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This report presents the outcomes of the digital survey conducted in 2023 among workers in the Cambodian textile sector.
