孟加拉:三方委员会来帮助解决服装部门的劳工问题
Tripartite council to help solve RMG's labour problems
Formation of a Tripartite Consultative Council (TCC) for addressing labour disputes faced by workers in the RMG sector was discussed at a roundtable organised by Bangladesh Institute of Labour Studies (BILS) and Friedrich Ebert Stiftung (FES). Speakers suggested that workers and owners from the industry should have a clear understanding of labour laws.
It is necessary for the owners of companies in the RMG industry as well as the workers to understand and apply labour laws for effectively forming the TCC. The council will help solve labour problems related to wages, workplace safety, working hours and social security among others.
The roundtable called 'Formulation of Tripartite Consultative Council in RMG sector: Scope and Challenges, Role of Stakeholders' was organised to explore the possibilities of the council and getting suggestions from the stakeholders for addressing the challenges in its formation, said Bangladeshi media reports.
Bangladesh worker organisations' leaders believe that formation of TCC will not be enough to reduce labour problems in the apparel sector as such bodies can only provide suggestions and are not empowered to make decisions.
However, Mikail Shipar, labour secretary, was of the opinion that TCC should be formed for the improvement of the Bangladesh's RMG sector. He suggested BILS to propose a framework to the labour ministry to assist the government in analysing the issue. Shipar also thinks that the council should be linked to the National Tripartite Consultative Council.

孟加拉:三方委员会来帮助解决服装部门的劳工问题
针对服装部门工人处理劳动纠纷而形成的三方咨询委员会(TCC)进行了由孟加拉劳工研究所与FES组织的圆桌会议。演讲者建议该行业的工人和业主应该对劳动法有一个清晰的理解。
服装行业的公司老板以及工人们有必要理解和申请劳动法来有效的形成申请形成三方咨询委员会。委员会将帮助解决工资、工作安全、工作时间和社会保障等劳动力相关的问题。
称为“服装部门三方咨询委员会构想的范围和挑战,利益相关者的角色”的圆桌会议是组织探索理事会的可能性,建议从利益相关者考虑形成应对挑战,孟加拉国媒体报道说。
孟加拉工人组织领导人认为, TCC的形成将不足以减少在服装行业的劳动力问题,这样的机构只能提供建议,不能够做决定。
然而, 劳工部秘书Mikail Shipar认为,TCC应该形成来改善孟加拉国的服装部门。他建议BILS向劳工部提出一个框架,协助政府分析这个问题。Shipar还认为,委员会应该与国家三方咨询委员会链接。
