What has the state done to prevent violence against women and girls?
Women who opt to work in garment factories, instead of working as a domestic help or getting married, are often viewed as women of “loose character.” In fact, this is the case for all working women, be it RMG workers, or journalists, photographers or field researchers.
Bangladesh hasn't ratified the Domestic Workers Act itself, making it difficult for the government to require the same of destination countries.
