Pay Eid bonus to RMG workers by 20th Ramzan
UNB, Dhaka :
Ready-made garment workers here on Friday demanded payment of their Eid bonuses and arrears before the 20th of Ramzan.
Addressing a rally in front of the Jaitya Press Club in the capital, workers’ leaders also demanded Eid bonus amounting to their salaries of the workers, saying ministers, MPs, and the public servants get Eid bonus equal to their basic salary.
They said, many garment owners have already gone abroad in the name of marketing garment products so that they can avoid paying bonuses and salaries of workers before Eid.
Many owners in association with local criminals are treating the garment workers’ leaders so that they cannot raise their voice demanding arrears and bonuses on the occasion of Eid, the workers’ leaders said.
Chaired by Garment Workers’ Trade Union Centre president Sadekur Rahman Shamim, the rally was addressed, among others, by its general secretary Kazi Ruhul Amin, workers’ leaders KM Mito, Ziaul Kabir and Iqbal Hosain.
