Factors Persuading the Socio-economic Conditions of Workers in RMG.

      Аннотация: The ready-made garments (RMG) industry acts as the backbone of Bangladesh economy and as a catalyst for the development of this country. Although Bangladesh Garments Manufacturing and Export Association (BGMEA) along with the government and other international organisations has taken the initiatives of developing skills of workers and their survival issues, yet more initiatives as such are required to meet the demand of the industry and enhance the productivity of the industry. The study results show that the main causes of labor unrest include lack of minimum facility and safety at work, sub-standard living conditions, deferred payment of wages and benefits, international conspiracy and coercive role of the law enforcing agency, too much dependency on buyers, pressures from the workers, local and international terrorists etc. The findings of this study show that Bangladesh has a great opportunity to earn a great foreign currency through developing and sustaining ready-made garments industry. The study also suggests some measures for the removal of ongoing political and socio-economic crisis of garment industry of Bangladesh.
