孟加拉国寻求国际劳工组织在服装公平价格方面的帮助

Bangladesh seeks ILO help in fair price for garments
Bangladesh commerce minister Tipu Munshi has urged the International Labour Organization (ILO) to play a role in getting fair prices for readymade garments (RMG) manufactured in Bangladesh. Recently, the Bangladeshgovernmenthas increased minimum wage of workers in thecountry’s RMG industry, which has increased the cost of manufacturers.
Apparel manufacturers in Bangladesh have spent a lot of money in upgrading occupational safety and health of workers in their factories after the 2013 Rana Plaza building collapse. However, RMG buyers from Bangladesh are not ready to increase thepriceof items that they source from the country, Munshi said in a meeting with ILO country director Tuomo Poutiainen in Dhaka.
Munshi said that Bangladesh has got ILO’s cooperation in the past, and the government would continue to work with it in the future. In response, Poutiainen said, “Bangladesh’s labour industry has attained visible development and hope this progress would continue in future.”

孟加拉国寻求国际劳工组织在服装公平价格方面的帮助
孟加拉国商务部长Tipu Munshi敦促国际劳工组织(ILO)在为孟加拉国制造的成衣争取公平价格方面发挥作用。最近，孟加拉国政府提高了本国服装行业工人的最低工资，这增加了制造商的成本。
2013年拉纳广场(Rana Plaza)大楼倒塌后，孟加拉国的服装制造商投入大量资金，改善工厂工人的职业安全和健康。不过，Munshi在达卡与国际劳工组织国家主管Tuomo Poutiainen举行的会议上表示，来自孟加拉国的服装买家不准备提高从该国采购产品的价格。
Munshi说，孟加拉国过去得到了国际劳工组织的合作，今后政府将继续与之合作。作为回应，Poutiainen说:“孟加拉国的劳工工业已经取得了明显的发展，希望这种进步在未来继续下去。”
