Bangladesh Safety Agreement on Health and Safety in the Textile and Garment Industry

Bangladesh Safety Agreement

Overview

The Bangladesh Safety Agreement (BSA) is a legally binding agreement between 240+ global brands and trade unions, UNI and IndustriALL, to ensure worker health and safety in Bangladesh’s textile and garment industry. 

The BSA strengthens worker health and safety by:

  • Implementing fire, electrical, structural, and boiler safety improvements in factories so no worker fears fires, building collapses or other accidents that can be prevented with reasonable health and safety measures.
  • Informing workers about their rights and responsibilities, common safety risks, and evacuation procedures.
  • Providing an accessible Complaints Mechanism for health and safety concerns.

The Bangladesh Safety Agreement is a country program under the International Accord framework agreement and is implemented by the RMG Sustainability Council (RSC) in Bangladesh.
