Workers at Dragon Garments demonstrate for arrears
“Regular staffers at the factory did not get salary for the last 4-6 months while managing ones remained unpaid for at least 11 months"
Workers at Dragon Garments blocked Malibagh DIT road on Sunday around 2pm, demanding their unpaid salaries.
"Regular staffers at the factory did not get salary for the last 4-6 months while managing ones remained unpaid for at least 11 months," a factory official, unwilling to be named, told The Business Standard.
"The factory authorities assured them that they will get at least one month's salary within a few days," he added.
"The workers freed the road hours after the assurance from the factory owner and officials of the Bangladesh Garment Manufacturers and Exporters Association," said Moshiur Rahman, officer-in-charge of Ramna Police Station.
