| Description | ||||||
| This study explores employee perceptions and experiences within the woodbased industry Zone in Shwe Pyi Thar Township, Yangon Region, Myanmar, focusing on governance, environmental sustainability, economic impact, community engagement, and working conditions. Based on responses from 110 workers across various roles, the findings reveal that the workforce is predominantly male, middleaged, and primarily employed in assistant-level positions. Most employees have completed secondary education and demonstrate long-term service in the industry. Employment is nearly evenly split between full-time and part-time roles, reflecting flexibility in the labor structure. Descriptive analysis indicates that governance and regulation are met with cautious optimism. Employees in Myanmar express moderate confidence in government monitoring and policy enforcement, but skepticism remains about sustainability policies' long-term impact. They are aware of eco-friendly practices, economic benefits, and community engagement. However, integration of community feedback into operations is limited. Concerns about job insecurity and illegal logging threaten employment stability and environmental outcomes. To address these concerns, the study recommends enhancing regulatory transparency, promoting inclusive community engagement, and strengthening job security. |
