Nearly 5,000 Bangladeshi Garment Workers Sacked Due To Strikes by Adekkatv: 12:41pm On Jan 30, 2019 |
Almost 5,000 low-paid Bangladeshi garment workers sewing clothes for global brands have been sacked by factory bosses for being part of the strike over wages earlier this month that turned violent. Thousands of labourers walked out of factory floors throughout the country in days-long protests that disrupted the $30bn industry and saw police fire tear gas and rubber bullets at protesters. More than 50 injured in clashes in Ashulia and one worker was killed, a key industrial town outside Dhaka where clothes are sewn for retail giants H&M, Walmart and many others. Police reported that, thousands of factory workers accused of vandalism and looting during the demonstrations have been fired, but unions have alleged the industry of intimidation and a crackdown. "So far the factories have dismissed 4,899 workers due to the unrest," a senior police officer told the reporters on condition of anonymity.
