Labour Secretary AHM Safiquzzaman on Tuesday warned that strict action will be taken against factory owners who illegally lay off workers without informing the local administration or relevant authorities.
“The intelligence agencies have informed the government about plans to create instability by laying off workers after Eid,” he said at a press conference held after the 20th meeting of the Tripartite Consultation Committee on the RMG sector (RMG-TCC) at the secretariat.
The secretary said if such efforts are made the government would enforce the law strictly.
“Those who plot against the garment sector are enemies of the country,” he said.
