| dc.description.abstract | The Garment industry is the most important source of foreign currency. Bangladesh has
about 2,500 garment factories and 10 million people are dependent one it directly or
indirectly an about 80 percent garment workers are woman. The garments sector has
become an important institution for reduction of poverty. But the workers face many
problems during working time and outside. The foreign investors are only concentrating
their local business. They do not talk about the rights of the workers. The Government is
also not interested to the point. Not only that, the garments owners are pocketing a huge
sum of money but they do not think about the welfare of their labour. As a result the
workers have to work under an unfriendly environment. No friendly relationship exists
between the workers group and owners. Sometimes workers need to sacrifice their lives
too. Every year we can see a lot of garments workers die in several accident that take
place in the industries. Sometimes fire explodes and takes away human lives, sometimes
buildings collapses and destroys that kill workers. Day by day the amounts of workers
death are increasing. But after a few days later of the accident, everyone forget the
tragedy. It is the present scenario of our country. Again the workers do not paid with their
monthly wages and bonus duly. In fact, they build our economy with their hard labour but
they do not get proper right. | en_US |
