How Places Matter - Understanding Workers’ Responses to Garment Factory Closures during the Pandemic in Bengaluru and Srirangapatna

Authors: Swathi Shivanand and R. Pratibha

The paper looks at the phenomenon of forced resignations in the garment industry in Karnataka during the pandemic. It demonstrates how workers’ responses to forced resignations were determined by whether they were located in the city (Bengaluru) or a small town (Srirangapatna) and calls for an engagement with the local geographies to understand the experiences of women garment workers.
