The government is actively working to implement the rightful demands of workers including the garment workers as the government is sincere about their demands, reports UNB.
Citing a home ministry statement the media reported on Thursday that the government is sincere and agreed to the rightful demands of due wages and benefits of workers.
The statement reads, “The government is highly sincere and agreed to the rightful demands of due wages and benefits of workers including garment workers and other industrial sectors, and it is actively working to implement these demands and is making all-out efforts in this regard. Instructions have been given to factory owners and the BGMEA. Their activities are being monitored.”
