Abstract

Bangladesh is the fastest developing country in the world today. Among various sectors responsible for this contribution, the highest important is garments or RMG. The generation of foreign currency & employment opportunity are the basics done by RMG at present. Most of this employment is poor women workforce at a very little cost. While the garments sector is dependent on this labor force, the employers are not providing them the facilities according to labor law. Women’s social & occupational rights are at risk today. This study has gone through the observation of women workers’ social safety & security conditions with the solution of the problems prevailing in RMG sector.
