Responsible wage digitalization in the GFT sector

This Sustainability Recommendation Paper (SRP) highlights the importance of responsible wage digitalization in Cambodia’s garment, footwear and travel goods (GFT) sector, which has experienced significant growth in the number of factories utilising digital wage payments from 22% in 2018 to 72% in 2024. The paper underscores that wage digitalization benefits employers, workers, and the broader economy by enhancing transparency, financial inclusion, and security, particularly for women.
