First female president of BGMEA Rubana Huq has urged the owners and workers of the apparel sector to forget the discrimination at workplaces. She came up with the call while speaking at a views-exchange meeting organized by Gazipur Zila Police yesterday on security at industries during the Ramadan and Eid-ul-Fitr.Rubana Huq said, “Owner-worker discrimination brings nothing good for the industry. So, try to avoid any kind of clash as exploitation doesn’t bring welfare.” Things not good for workers, cannot be good for owners as well. So, try to solve difficulties in a cordial manner, she opined. Gazipur Police Super Samsunahar presided over the program while Senior Join Secretary of BKMEA Md Moazzem Hossain, General Manager of Ha-Meem Group Mahfujul Haque, Additional Police Super Rasel Sheikh and Md Golam Sabur were also present at the program. Blaming the third party incitement for the instability in the industry, Rubana Haq called upon to be aware of such provocation and justify the information provided by the middlemen of the factories. She urged owners not to deprive workers from their due wages as it is the responsibility of owners. Police will also ensure the security of the factories, she mentioned.
