Minimum Wage Media Dialogue
Tannery Workers Union organized a media dialogue on February 9, 2025, at Savar, Dhaka to address the recently declared Minimum Wage for tannery sector workers.

As the tannery sector plays a vital role in Bangladesh’s economy, it is essential that this minimum wage is not just on paper but actively enforced to improve the lives of thousands of workers.
