Bangladesh Garment Workers Union

The Bangladesh Garment Workers Union (BGWU) is an organization that represents workers in the country's garment industry, which is one of the largest in the world. The union advocates for better wages, working conditions, and workers' rights, aiming to improve the livelihoods of garment workers. Bangladesh's garment sector is crucial to its economy but has faced criticism for poor labor practices. The BGWU plays a vital role in raising awareness, negotiating with employers, and ensuring that workers have a collective voice in matters affecting their jobs and lives.
