Child labour in Narayanganj, Bangladesh - 19 Jul 2025 An underage worker seen working at a local Ready Made Garment (RMG) factory. In various local factories in Bangladesh, related to Ready Made Garments (RMG) sectors, its often seen that the factory owners hire child labour or underage labour for work so that they can pay less wages. These underage workers work hard but get paid less compared to their adult co-workers due to their age and as they can not get work somewhere else. Large RMG factories, who export goods in different countries, maintain strictly no child labour policy but the local factories still do not maintain any child labour policies.
