The legal minimum wage in Myanmar is 3,600 kyat per eight-hour work day (2, 12 pounds), which is equivalent to 26 pence per hour. However, the researchers also found that garment workers were paid as little as 13 pence an hour in Myanmar factories supplying clothing to Sports Direct, H & M, New Look and Muji, earning a total of 1.06 pounds a day. According to the report, these factories paid the new workers a reduced rate, which is permitted by the labor laws of Myanmar.
