Garment industry environment undergoes radical transformation
In the past 11 years since the collapse of Rana Plaza in Savar, there has been a fundamental transformation in the garment sector workplace. Owners of these sectors, along with labor leaders and researchers, acknowledge this change. They said that following the tragedy that claimed the lives of 1,135 garment workers in Rana Plaza, factory owners, under pressure from European and North American buyers, have invested heavily to ensure safe working conditions. Western diplomats have also criticized the garment sector in Bangladesh at various times, acknowledging that it now publicly accepts its safe and compliant status.
