C T Online Desk: The tannery industry owners have ruled out the Centre for Policy Dialogue’s (CPD) proposal of Tk 22,776 minimum monthly wage for their workers, terming it as unrealistic.
Bangladesh Tanners Association (BTA) Chairman Md Shaheen Ahmed said, “The tannery industry is currently facing a very challenging time. So, the CPD’s proposal over the tannery workers monthly wages is void of reality.”
Earlier in the day, the CPD, a think tank organisation, proposed a minimum wage of Tk22, 776 for the tannery workers to ensure their smooth livelihood amid the high inflationary pressure.
