The pay scale is to be determined as per Schedule A and Schedule B. The rate of overtime shall be calculated as per the government rules and workers agitating for their rights should not be laid off."

The other demands include an eight-hour duty time instead of ten hours.

Admin Manager of Meigo Bangladesh (Bay-Economic Zone) Lt Mohd Khalid Hasan said that the salary of the workers has been increased but they did not like it. He also said that efforts are underway to resolve the matter...
