Rushanara Ali, MP on Thursday said workers in Bangladesh garment industry and worldwide, deserve the right to safety at work as well as better conditions and pay.
“However, one year on, there’s still so much that needs to be done. In particular, much more needs to be done for the families of those who died as well as the survivors,” she said adding that the victims of Rana Plaza must never be forgotten.
Speaking on the first anniversary of the Rana Plaza building collapse, she also said this needless tragedy must never be forgotten, according to message received here.
“As we mark the first anniversary of this appalling disaster and commemorate the lives of those who were killed, it’s vital that the victims and their families receive compensation and support and that the international community acts urgently to improve labour standards and ensure garments workers receive a decent living wage,” Rushanara said.
