The readymade garment (RMG) sector is grappling with a range of internal challenges, including rising interest rates, soaring energy costs, and unreliable gas and electricity supplies, all of which are taking a heavy toll on productivity and profitability.
The government of Bangladesh has recently formed a new wage board for the readymade garment (RMG) industry where 4.4 million workers are currently employed. There are around 45 industrial sectors in our country, each with its own set minimum wage. This means that there is no national minimum wage.
