Training on OSH and GBV for Home Based RMG Workers
Bangladesh Labour Foundation – BLF with the support of European Union and Oxfam in Bangladesh organized training on Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) and Gender Based Violence (GBV) for home-based workers in the Ready-Made Garment (RMG) sector on 14-15 December, 2024.
Home-based workers are the unsung heroes of the Ready-Made Garment (RMG) industry in Bangladesh, contributing significantly to the sector while working from their homes. Despite their crucial role, they often face:
- Limited access to occupational health and safety (OHS) resources.
- Poor working conditions, such as inadequate lighting, ventilation, and ergonomic setups.
- Exclusion from labor protections and benefits.
This initiative focuses on:
- Raising awareness about workplace hazards and safety measures.
- Providing practical guidance for creating safer home workspaces.
- Promoting health and well-being for workers who play a critical role in the RMG supply chain.
Together, weโre building a safer, stronger industry.
