Bangladeshi union federations call on German Partnership for Sustainable Textiles to express support for the minimum wage to increase to a minimum of 23,000 BDT per month

Dear Linda Schraml, Bianca Weis and Thilo Liedlbauer,

We are writing on behalf of the undersigned Bangladeshi union federations to strongly urge PST intervention to support an urgently needed increase to the legal minimum wage for garment workers in Bangladesh. [...]

As your organization is committed to bringing stakeholders together to promote socially and environmentally responsible business practices, we call on PST to publicly:

  • express support for the minimum wage to increase in line with calls being made by workers and their representatives for a minimum of 23,000 BDT per month;
  • make a long-term commitment to continue sourcing from Bangladesh after the wage increase;
  • agree to increase your purchasing prices paid to suppliers in line with the labour cost increase;
  • Express your concern at the ongoing repression and harassment of trade union leaders and of your support for trade unions, freedom of association, and the right to protest.

[...]
