Garments Sector In
Bangladesh
Garment sector is the largest employer in
Bangladesh.
The garment sector has provided
employment opportunities to employer from
the rural areas that previously did not have
any opportunity to be part of the formal
workforce.
This has given women the chance to be
financially independent and have a voice in
the family because now they contribute
financially.
Inhuman life of Garments wo
rkers
Most of the workers came from the village,
could not income paper money in the village.
After arrived Dhaka/ cities they could get a
chance, at the same time bound to work as
without money city life impossible, can not
continue ever one hour.
The garments owners take this change as
there is huge number worker available with
competitive price. Although they know there are
doing more work compare to there salary, but
they can not say anything.
They work 12-14 hours daily, even for whole
night during shipment, despite this violate

Nari Uddog Kendra (Centre for Womens Initiatives), a
womens organization working with women employed in the
garment factories.
One quarter of those reporting respiratory problems had been
working in the factories for five years or more, and one fifth of
those reporting symptoms of repetitive strain injuries had been
working for six years or more. Long hours of work in one
particular position, lack of access to clean toilet facilities and
inadequate ventilation in factories were major factors.
The economics of exploitation
The ruling class in Bangladesh should be worried by
this expression of workers' power - a major revolt
forcing major concessions in the only significant
export industry. Some Western analysts are already
classifying the country as 'a failing state' and it is
rated as the most corrupt in the world (in whatever
way the ruling class calculates such things). This is
causing international concern at the potential
destabilizing influence on the region. "The
geopolitical significance of the riots lies in the fact
that they reveal the weakness of the Bangladeshi
state. The failure of the government to contain the
violence quickly and opting instead for half measures
that satisfied neither side and did nothing to bring
them to an agreement points to an implosion of
governability and indicates that Bangladesh is drifting
toward the status of a failed state.
