The workers of the now closed Ms Shine Fashion Company (PVT) Ltd., which was based out of the Dhaka EPZ (DEPZ), have started receiving their outstanding salary from the Bangladesh Export Processing Zones Authority (BEPZA).
According to a press release issued in this direction, around Taka 30.02 crore arrears would be paid to the workers in phases even if DEPZ Executive Director Abdus Sobhan recently handed over to some workers pay orders of their outstanding salaries and other benefits.
The remaining workers will get their arrears in their bank accounts, claimed the press report.
