Retrieved on: 
Friday, April 21, 2023

The owner, Mohammed Sohel Rana, had allegedly been told by an engineer the day before that the building was not safe and should be evacuated.

Key Points: 
  • The owner, Mohammed Sohel Rana, had allegedly been told by an engineer the day before that the building was not safe and should be evacuated.
  • Ten years on, the murder trial against him and another 35 defendants has still not been concluded.
  • The tragedy shed a light on the appalling conditions that sometimes exist in the global retail supply chain.

The response to Rana

    • These focused on things like increasing building fire and safety audits and inspections, with some success in factory safety for workers.
    • Without getting into the fine detail of exactly where this applies, it arguably includes Rana Plaza.
    • Many wealthier jurisdictions including the UK, France, Germany, the EU and Australia have enacted legislation to tackle forced labour.
    • There are also proposals for a mandatory due diligence directive across the EU, though it’s not yet clear whether this will go ahead.

Our findings

    • Indeed, the situation was aggravated by COVID 19.
    • Yet no suppliers took customers to court for cancellations or refusing to pay for goods.
    • Three-quarters of factories were still selling to brands at the same prices as in March 2020.

The situation today

    • In Bangladesh, unions are demanding that the legal minimum wage for garment workers be almost tripled, but so far with no success.
    • Garment exports have increased more than 35% since the start of the pandemic yet wages and employee numbers have stayed the same.
    • When Misguided went under, this meant not getting paid at all, leading to hundreds of workers being made redundant.
    • Until a regime is in place with genuine teeth to ensure retailers toe the line, the modern slavery behind high-street fashions will only continue.
