Thus, RMG industry is considered as the backbone of the country\u0026amp;#39;s economy, especially in terms of employment and export earnings. This analysis is based on a primary survey of 120 garment workers located at Ashulia in the suburb of Dhaka city. It was found that garment workers were working on an average 10.38 hours a day, but they received an average income less than 8,000 taka (equivalent to US$ 103) per month. Findings also suggest that most garment workers lead a life characterized by misery and deprivation, along with a gloomy future. Thus, the standard of living of garment workers appears to be in precarious condition and very few have been able to come out of the vicious circle of poverty.","author":[{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"Person","name":"Md A

RMG industry is considered as the back bone of the country’s economy-The main strength of RMG sector in Bangladesh is poorly paid garment workers. This article depicts the wages level, age group, gender, family life and working hours of workers in RMG industries in Bangladesh. It is notable that the living situation of garments workers may change last couple of years. Nowadays their children also go to school & they can serve their old parents. Already government fixed the minimum wages for their better standard of living.

These women do work outside in order to survive themselves and to feed their family members. They prefer working in garment factory assuming that it is comparatively safe for them and usually paying them regularly whatever the amount is. These workers' contribution in the garment industry is significant; in contrast the garment industry's contribution to them is disappointing. Throughout our survey we tried to find out the contributing factors that are reasonable for their lower economic and living standard. This analysis is based on the survey of 300 unskilled female workers in EPZ and non EPZ areas of Dhaka and Gazipur district. Comprehensive interview and observations of the living and economic conditions of unskilled female workers have been conducted through a structured questionnaire. Tire ultimate findings of this study is that the living and economic condition of female garments workers are in unsteady condition and they are still in the abject poverty. In our view, the biggest threat to this sector is the emerging dissatisfaction of the female workers regarding their living and socio-economic status.</p><div class="ds-related-work--ctas"><button class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-swp-download-button" data-signup-modal="{"location":"wsj-grid-card-download-pdf-modal","work_title":"Das, S.; Pavel, T.; Khandakar, S.A.

Therefore, this industry is treated as a leading contributor to generating female employment in Bangladesh. Before analyzing the living condition of the RMG female workers, we should have to know about the income of the RMG female workers. Study shows that 42% of female RMG workers are satisfied, and 16% of the workers are dissatisfied, and 31% of the workers do express their opinion regarding their earning. In most case, female workers is the only one earning members in the family Satisfaction level of the workers is a subjective judgment. The housing condition of female workers in Dhaka city is not well at all. In our survey observed that the maximum number of the garments workers stay in the rural and overcrowded area in Dhaka city like workers who live in Hazaribag, Kamrangirchor, who works in the factory located at Panthapath. The workers of RMG sectors are involved in the direct physical effort every day. According to the Bangladesh Labor Act of 2006, the maximum working hours of garment workers is 8 hours. But they have to work over 8 hours per day. But most of the female workers have to work over 8 hours. This has a look at indicates that that female garment workers in Dhaka city are doing work on an average of 10.5 hours in the garment factory, but they receive an average salary less than Tk. 6500 per month. Already the government fixed the minimum wages for their better standard of living. But it is not sufficient for the garment works to live in Dhaka city. The government 13 should take steps to improve the wage structure and living conditions as well as socioeconomic situations of garments workers.</p><div class="ds-related-work--ctas"><button class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-swp-download-button" data-signup-modal="{"location":"wsj-grid-card-download-pdf-modal","work_title":"An Analysis of Socio-Economic Condition of Female Readymade Garments' (RMG) Workers in Dhaka City","attachmentId":64575241,"attachmentType":"pdf","work_url":"https://www.academia.edu/44210117/An_Analysis_of_Socio_Economic_Condition_of_Female_Readymade_Garments_RMG_Workers_in_Dhaka_City","alternativeTracking":true}"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">download</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">Download free PDF</span></button><a class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-wsj-grid-card-view-pdf" href="https://www.academia.edu/44210117/An_Analysis_of_Socio_Economic_Condition_of_Female_Readymade_Garments_RMG_Workers_in_Dhaka_City"><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">View PDF</span><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">chevron_right</span></a></div></div><div class="ds-related-work--container js-wsj-grid-card" data-collection-position="4" data-entity-id="37357840" data-sort-order="default"><a class="ds-related-work--title js-wsj-grid-card-title ds2-5-body-md ds2-5-body-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/37357840/Socioeconomic_Conditions_of_Readymade_Garment_Workers_in_Bangladesh">Socioeconomic Conditions of Readymade Garment Workers in Bangladesh</a><div class="ds-related-work--metadata"><a class="js-wsj-grid-card-author ds2-5-body-sm ds2-5-body-link" data-author-id="53134967" href="https://iub-bd.academia.edu/DrNazrulIslam">Dr. Nazrul Islam</a></div><p class="ds-related-work--metadata ds2-5-body-xs">Bangladesh Apparel Views, 2014</p><p class="ds-related-work--abstract ds2-5-body-sm">The RMG industry of Bangladesh is the main sector of foreign earnings.

There are more than 4,500 garment companies are operating in Bangladesh. More than 80% of the foreign earnings are coming from this sector. At present, four million workers are working in this sector in which 90% are rural women. It is claimed by the employers that the garment companies have helped to develop the socioeconomic status of the rural women employed in this sector. Hence, this paper aims at identifying the socioeconomic status factors of the garment workers of Bangladesh. This study suggests that housing, water and sanitation conditions, medical facilities and first aid treatment, wages, social status, adaptation of cultural values and norms, attachment with labor unions, ownership arrangement, leave with pay and overtime are significantly related to the socioeconomic status of the garments workers of Bangladesh. This study recommends that the measures for improving the socioeconomic status of the women workers are related to the improvement of their housing conditions, education, health and sanitation, and the favorable service rules for the women workers.</p><div class="ds-related-work--ctas"><button class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-swp-download-button" data-signup-modal="{"location":"wsj-grid-card-download-pdf-modal","work_title":"Socio-Economic Factors of Readymade Garments Workers in Bangladesh","attachmentId":48822061,"attachmentType":"pdf","work_url":"https://www.academia.edu/28472607/Socio_Economic_Factors_of_Readymade_Garments_Workers_in_Bangladesh","alternativeTracking":true}"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">download</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">Download free PDF</span></button><a class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-wsj-grid-card-view-pdf" href="https://www.academia.edu/28472607/Socio_Economic_Factors_of_Readymade_Garments_Workers_in_Bangladesh"><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">View PDF</span><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">chevron_right</span></a></div></div><div class="ds-related-work--container js-wsj-grid-card" data-collection-position="6" data-entity-id="68772161" data-sort-order="default"><a class="ds-related-work--title js-wsj-grid-card-title ds2-5-body-md ds2-5-body-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/68772161/Socio_Economic_Status_and_Influencing_Factors_of_Wage_Discrepancy_Among_Ready_Made_Garment_Workers_in_Bangladesh_Evidence_from_Dhaka_City">Socio-Economic Status and Influencing Factors of Wage Discrepancy Among Ready-Made Garment Workers in Bangladesh: Evidence from Dhaka City</a><div class="ds-related-work--metadata"><a class="js-wsj-grid-card-author ds2-5-body-sm ds2-5-body-link" data-author-id="107329771" href="https://bhashanibd.academia.edu/deluarmoloy">deluar moloy</a></div><p class="ds-related-work--metadata ds2-5-body-xs">2019</p><p class="ds-related-work--abstract ds2-5-body-sm">Ready-made garments (RMG) industry is the most important export-oriented sector in Bangladesh.

Very low wages and trade deals with Western countries have helped make Bangladesh the world's second-largest garment exporter after China, with 60% of its clothes going to Europe and 23% to the US. The Ready Made Garment and Apparel Industries has a more excellent potential than whatever available part as far as other employments and foreign trade profit to diminish state of extreme poverty and make a commitment to the social and the national economy.
