SAVINGS:Regular earning
Workers investments on family pension schemes etc. create savings. 15 years and above had their own bank accounts.
A higher proportion of workers (30 percent) had bank accounts in the EPZ. Women are on average better savers than men.
Women save about 7.6 percent of their otherwise small income.
CHILD LABOUR:In 2000 a second MOU was signed between BGMEA and ILO focused
• A fact-finding survey to determine the extent of child labor in the garment industry;
• The establishment of an education program;• The establishment of a monitoring and verification
system; • The provision of income compensation in the farm of a
monthly stipend of Tk. 300, the equivalent of (at that time) US$ 7ILO 2005 baseline survey on child labor in hazardous
situations found
• The one sector where legal restrictions on use of child labor showed to be successfully forced was the Ready-made Garment industry, while around 532,000 child laborers were working in hazardous situations in other industries.
The future plan:
o The garments industry is in state of crisis .In recent days there have been several reports in the media focusing on the plight of the garment sector;
o Over thousand factory has close down ;o Two hundred thousand women have been made jobless ;o Exports could drop during the current fiscal year by 20% or more;
AND This situation we have to do a plan for save our rmg
sector .some points are given there:
Process of future plan:Enhance chittagon

Direct shipping facility
Workers safety
Image building

truckling ,rail
Search for new markets

Duty free access to

Emergency service of
BGMEA/BEPZA

value items
Mobilization of NGO
Established of task force by minister
of commerce
Enhance the chittagong port:
o Bangladesh become more competitive by reducing transaction costs.
o The most modern equipment should be used.o Chittagong port should be operate 24 hours in thee shift
thereby ensuring there is no stoppage of work.o The government should within seven days a package of
special measure to increase the efficiency of chittagong port.
Direct shipping facility:
BSC and other shipping companies should operate a twice weekly service to koria, Taiwan and Hong kong to speed up the movement of fabrics from these countries to Bangladesh.
Workers safety:
Ensuring workplace safety at all garment factories is a gigantic task and will take time to accomplish. But we believe the government of Bangladesh, BGMEA and BKMEA, with the support of global brands and international development partners, will be able to ensure the safety of the RMG industry and maintain the momentum of socio-economic development in the country.
IMPROVED INLAND TRUCKLING,RAIL:
Various measures should be taken to improve movement of trucks between Chittagong and Dhaka.
The import of new cargo trucks should be made duty free.
Railway wagon capacity should be increased and improved.
SEARCH FOR NEW MARKETS:
we are dependent mainly on two markets namely the EU and North America (the US and Canada). Though we reduced our dependency on these two markets from 93% to 85% in last five years (From fiscal 2009-10 to 2013-14)
The Nordic countries, Central Asia, Africa, the Middle East are some of the places a serious effort can be made to carve out a niche for Bangladesh garments.
President BGMEA can lead a delegation in some of these countries.
EXPANSION OF EXPORT TO EUROPE:
There is a lot of potential to expand exports to Italy, Germany, Britain and France, who are the principal importers in Europe.
Special efforts should be made to persuade the EU to relax its rules of origin.
All our Ambassadors and High Commissioners should be instructed to give the search for new markets.
DUTY FREE ACESS TO INDIAN MARKET:
The government should make a special effort to persuade the Indian government to extend duty free access to all ready made garments from Bangladesh.
Every effort should be made to get India to implement this commitment within the next hundred days.
Duty free access to the Indian market will open up tremendous opportunities for Bangladesh.
ESTABLISHMENT TO JOIN BGMEA/EFB IT:
BGMEA and EPB should jointly set up an IT unit, which should also be able to undertake research work.
BGMEA’s web page should be interactive and should serve to market worldwide.
The IT/ research cell should monitor world wide developments in the garment sector.
IMPROVED BANKING SYSTEM:
Bangladesh Bank should meet periodically with local Banks to monitor developments in the RMG sector.
Local Bank should encourage to reduce their charges of LCs
UNANIMOUS HARTALS AND POLITICS:
The government and opposition should join hands to adopt a unanimous resolution in parliament agreeing to an indefinite moratorium on all hartals, as well as on all student politics.
REDUCTION UTILITY COST:
Government must closely monitor not only labor costs but also utility charges in all the neighbouring countries, Bangladesh must remain competitive.
If necessary RMG factories may be given electricity and water at subsidized rates. Telephone charges for overseas calls from Bangladesh are today among the highest in the world.
These charges should be reduced substantialy.
Similarly government must ensure a steady supply of power to all RMG factories.
TEXAPP ORAGANIZATION:
TEXAPP Bangladesh 2014 - Bangladesh Textile & Apparel Forum, which is expected to bring together Bangladesh’s textile and apparel industry leaders and machinery importers of Bangladesh under one roof, will be held from September 3, 2014, in Dhaka.
The event, being organized on the sidelines of the 15th TexTech Bangladesh 2014 International Expo, will discuss several issues related to the Bangladesh apparel industry and also deliberate on how to further take the industry forward in the coming years.
Bangladesh Textile & Apparel Forum is expected to set the stage for the Bangladeshi textile and apparel industry & machinery importer leaders to focus, discuss, decide and set goals for the future of the exports of their industry from Bangladesh to the world.
Based on the discussions held at TEXAPP Bangladesh 2014, ‘VISION 2021’ will be launched to further take the country’s textile and clothing industry forward in the coming years.
VISION 2021:
It is really a matter of great interest to many – how the economy of Bangladesh continues to grow at a steady pace, sometimes even when rowing against the tide.
Now we envision Bangladesh achieving the middle-income country status by 2021.
We firmly believe that our dream will come true within the stipulated time and the RMG industry will certainly play a crucial role in materialising the dream.
CONCLUSION: It is important that the new
government convey a clear impression to helping the RMG sector to save the backbone of the Bangladesh economy.
we hope that success will require good team work and co-ordination within the government .
