Mohammad Hatim, president of BKMEA, said that the fixed salary is far beyond our expectations. Many factories cannot afford this salary. I think 80 to 85 percent of factories can't afford it. Many factories will not be able to afford this salary and will be closed.
He said this in a speech given to a private television regarding the determination of new minimum wages for garment workers.
He said, it has been said to be implemented from December. We have already negotiated our work order for December, January and even March.
Criticizing the labor leaders, he said that the labor leaders will not go over the heads of those who speak. Because they pay for the next riches. It will go over us, over the whole industry. What is their income? As they say, we are the owners, we run the industry, we run the workers. We lead BKMEA BGMEA.
