P. 20 "In 2021/22 we identified 86 cases, affecting 11,848 workers, where payments had fallen short of what should have been paid, including premiums for overtime, downtime wages or unpaid wages during COVID-enforced lockdowns. These were subsequently addressed with a total of US$415,521 repaid to workers as result of our intervention. To enable this, we also signed a letter to the Sri Lankan government, alongside other brands and the ETI, seeking clarity on the payment of wages during the COVID-19 pandemic. "
