Star Business Report
BGMEA President SM Fazlul Haque urged the Sramik Karmachari Oikkay Parishad (Skop) leaders to keep the garment sector out of the purview of their dawn to dusk hartal tomorrow. In a statement yesterday the BGMEA chief said a tripartite agreement has been signed and the BGMEA has taken various steps to implement the agreement. On the other hand, the government also formed a minimum wage board. Against this background, any hartal or work stoppage programme in the sector will aggravate the situation, the BGMEA statement pointed out. He also said the board is working for fixing minimum wage structure for the workers and employees in the garment sector. The new wage board will be declared within the stipulated time, he hoped.
