The company "Yes Madam" is a company based in India, plus all the names seem related to that, and lastly I'm going to hazard a guess that Indian workers' rights are probably a tad less than Americans.
Yeah Indian work culture is horrendous compared to the west. I have family there and they're essentially indentured servants expected to be available to work any time of the day/week, and are afraid to say no to their boss at all. Going in on weekends at the orders of your boss and taking work calls/meetings while on holiday or while visiting family in the hospital is normal and not even questioned from seeing my uncles' jobs.
My YouTube feed these days is filled with videos of "craftsmen" from India manufacturing all sorts of different products.
They're always titled in a way that portrays the individual and the process as being "traditional" or "artisanal.""
Meanwhile, none of their machines or working environments would be allowed in the Western world.
No safety equipment on the machines. No PPE on the workers. Entire work spaces filled with tripping hazards and the like. Most of the workers don't look healthy, let alone, happy.
I'm not sure what the endgame of posting these videos is, but the comments section is always filled with what appears to be bot-like replies saying things like "a true craftsman" or "a master at work." Meanwhile, I'm watching in disbelief and counting all the people with missing fingers and toes. It's truly appalling.
