The PayYourWorkers campaign says brands and retailers that made a profit in 2020 could stop garment workers 'going hungry.'

The #PayYourWorkers campaign said brands and retailers that made a profit in 2020 – like Nike, Amazon, and Next – could stop"going hungry" and set up a severance fund by paying manufacturers the equivalent of $0.10 more per t-shirt.

Although manufacturers in some countries do pay workers severance if they lose their jobs, factory owners often come under pressure when a brand suddenly withdraws orders, which ultimately affects the worker, researchers say.in the first 3 months of the pandemic as COVID-19 shuttered stores worldwide, leading to wage losses estimated at at least $3.2 billion.
