Tazreen Fashion Fire

The Tazreen Fashion fire was a tragic industrial disaster that occurred in Bangladesh in 2012, when a deadly fire broke out at a clothing factory. The factory made garments for global brands, employing many workers in unsafe conditions. Limited safety measures, inadequate exits, and poor firefighting equipment led to the deaths of at least 112 workers and injuries to many others. The incident highlighted serious concerns about workplace safety in Bangladesh’s garment industry, prompting calls for improved fire safety standards and better protection for workers to prevent similar tragedies.
