Textile science, events, trade and issues / Compliance situation in RMG sector
« on: October 28, 2011, 01:17:22 AM »
Compliance with global environmental and social standards is now a critical issue if Bangladesh’s garments industry is to remain competitive in the global market.
In a recent survey conducted by Nari Uddug Kedra (NUK) in association with Bangladesh Knitwear Manufacturers and Exporters Association (BKMEA), it is found that only 30 percent of knitwear factories ensure social compliance.
As percent claim of BGMEA, only 53 out of approximately 4200 RMG units are not complying with safety measures in their respective premises.
It will be very sad for Bangladesh if it loses its share of apparel exports in the international markets due to failure on compliance issues (at its RMG factories).
