Hundreds of Bangladeshi workers who staged a protest are returning to work after their demands were considered. “The problem is resolved. We are back to work now and some will be working from tomorrow,” said Shihab, who is acting as the spokesperson for the 300 workers who staged a peaceful sit-in protest over non-payment of salaries and “extortion” of money. The workers – porters and cleaners – were refusing to report to work for days.

[T]wo Bangladeshi Embassy officials went...to meet the workers. “They found some violations by the company...we verified their problem and now we are doing our utmost best to help them with regards to their unpaid salaries.”
