ii Foreword

Like previous years, Safety and Rights Society (SRS) has conducted a yearly survey on workplace deaths - the fifth in the series.

The present report includes information on workplace deaths (as well as injuries that took place in the same incident that resulted the deaths) throughout 2015 by monitoring 26 newspapers (15 national and 11 regional).

A number of the media reports on workplaces have also been subject to on-site investigations as part of our work on assisting families obtain compensation.

This publication also includes the text of National Labour Policy, 2012 which we hope will be useful for those working for ensuring workers’ rights in Bangladesh.

We realize that many workers die from other means - on the way to seeking work, in political protests or in house fires etc – but these are not related to their work and so are not included in this report. This report also does not include Bangladesh workers who die outside the country.

We would like to express our sincere appreciation to Diakonia - a development partner of SRS – which has been supporting and guiding SRS since 2012 in carrying out its work on workplace health and safety in Bangladesh including this publication.

We hope regulatory authorities and agencies which enforce the Bangladesh Labour Act 2006, the media and other organisations who are working to improve workplace health and safety conditions in Bangladesh will find this report useful.

As always, any comments or suggestions for further improvement of this report would be highly appreciated and acknowledged with gratitude.

About Safety and Rights Society

Safety and Rights Society is a local NGO concerned with improving workplace and work- related safety in Bangladesh and assisting those injured or at risk of injury, to enforce their rights under the law.

Though Safety and Rights has a particular focus on labour rights, it is also concerned with wider public safety issues involving transport, drugs and other consumer products as well as other wider human rights issues.

Bangladesh Worker Safety Programme

Safety and Rights’s main programme is at present the Bangladesh Worker Safety Programme (BWSP). This programme, started in 2006 by an international NGO named Centre for Corporate Accountability, is now run by Safety and Rights.

BWSP aims to improve the health and safety conditions faced by workers in Bangladesh and to ensure that, following a workplace death and injury, dependent families and injured workers receive appropriate compensation according to the law. Its focus is particularly on those in the country’s ‘industrial’ and ‘service’ sectors

It works to improve conditions by:

- undertaking research to obtain a better understanding of the occupational health and safety situation in Bangladesh, including the numbers and circumstances of deaths and injuries and the necessary changes in workplace practices; - promoting the reform of health and safety legislation in Bangladesh so that it offers appropriate protection to workers; - providing training on workplace health and safety and other labour rights issues to the construction, garment and tannery workers and mid-level management; - assessing the activities of the Inspectorate of Factories and Establishments and other regulatory bodies with the aim of seeking improvements in how they seek compliance with, and enforcement of the law; - providing information and guidance to employers so that they understand their health and safety obligations and the steps they need to take to fulfill them; - offering health and safety management training to employers; - assisting trade unions in raising health and safety concerns with employers and enforcement bodies;

iv - filing strategic public interest litigation in the High Court of Bangladesh with the aim of ensuring that state bodies comply with their constitutional and legal requirements to provide workers with safe and healthy conditions at work; - working to ensure the effectiveness of National Industrial Health and Safety Council and the implementation of National Occupational Health and Safety Policy; - working to ensure the effectiveness of labour welfare fund.

It assists dependent families and injured workers gain compensation by

- monitoring national and regional newspapers for reports of workplace deaths; - investigating the circumstances of workplace deaths and contacting dependents to determine whether they need assistance for realising compensation (together with BRAC Human Rights and Legal Services Programme); - obtaining information about workplace injuries through research at hospitals; - informing employers of their obligation to pay compensation in relation to specific deaths and injuries and filing cases in the Labour Court where necessary (together with BLAST)

vi Chapter-1 Introduction

This report provides details of workplace deaths that took place in Bangladesh in 2015 in the manufacturing, construction, service, agricultural and transport sectors and analyses the incidents by sector, cause, age of the deceased, and location of the incident.

Information about the deaths was obtained by monitoring 15 national papers and 11 regional papers (from the Districts of , , , and .)

Kinds of deaths monitored

This report focuses on deaths of workers at the workplace arising out of issues relating to occupational safety and health and concerned with the management of the work. In this report (unlike in our first few reports), we have tried to collect details of transport workers (drivers or conductors and helpers working in vehicles) who have died in the course of their work. However, the report does not include deaths of workers travelling to or from work as these deaths primarily raise issues of road traffic safety rather than occupational health and safety.

The report also does not include deaths of workers as a result of police, or other kinds of violence or in incidents outside of the workplace – as none of these relate to occupational health and safety issues.

This report focuses on industrial and service sector deaths – but it does include details of certain agricultural deaths (where the newspaper reports clearly indicate a workplace safety issue). Very few agricultural sector deaths are reported in the newspapers.

Deaths at sea are excluded since whilst there are many reports of missing seamen – it is very difficult to know whether these have anything to do with the management of health and safety issues, and in addition, further press reports often fail to indicate whether or not the workers have died or survived.

Accuracy of the Information

The prime source of this information is from monitoring deaths that are reported in national, and some regional, newspapers. Relying on this data creates two problems. The first problem is that newspaper reports almost certainly do not reflect, by a high margin, the actual number of workplace deaths that have taken place.

The second problem concerns the accuracy of the newspaper reports themselves. To what extent, can we be sure that the correct facts about the deaths have been reported

1 in the newspapers? Working with BRAC’s Human Rights and Legal Services, we have investigated 127 cases of the total deaths reported in this year and these show, interestingly, that in the great majority of the cases, the key information contained in the papers was accurate – though it was not unusual for there to be some small errors in the spelling of the names of the deceased, the incident address and the circumstances of the death. In a few cases, we found that some deaths were not work-related or the location of the death could not be identified.

35 Chapter-3 Analysis of Deaths Newspaper Survey Report on Workplace Deaths January-December of 2015

Background

The number of workplace deaths remain high in Bangladesh. In the RMG sector measures taken by Accord and Alliance, following the Rana Plaza and Tazreen disasters, to improve building, fire and electrical safety of garment factories have though brought improvements in that sector.

Safety and Rights’ newspaper based survey involving 15 national and 11 regional newspapers showed that this year, 373 workers have died in workplace accidents. This compares with: in 2014, 320 workers died; in 2013, 376 workers died (excluding the 1134 confirmed Rana Plaza deaths); in 2012, the figure was 378 (excluding the 112 deaths caused by the Tazreen factory fire-112); in 2011, the figure was 388; in 2010 the figure was 383;

in 2009 the figure it was 265; and in 2008 number it was 320.

These figures are likely to be a significant under-estimate of the actual numbers, since most or many workplace deaths are not likely to be reported in newspapers.

The most dangerous sector this year is the construction sector with 147 of the deaths taking place in this sector, constituting 40 percent of the total.

The most common cause of death was electrocution, with 110 of the total deaths, 30%, caused

36 Analysis of deaths in 2015 (Jan-Dec)

We have analysed these deaths by looking at the following issues: - the number of deaths and numbers of separate incidents resulting in the deaths; - the district where the death took place; - the sector in which the death took place; - in relation to the manufacturing and services sector, the ‘sub-sector’ in which the death took place; - the month of the year when the death took place; - the ages of the workers who died; - the gender of the workers; and - the cause of deaths.

Table 1 shows that in 2015 there was a total of 282 incidents that resulted in 373 deaths.

The table also shows that about 28 percent of the deaths (103) took place in . Sizeable numbers of deaths are also reported in Chittagong (63), Gazipur (32), Narayanganj (23), Munsiganj (11), Sylhet (11), Barisal (9), and Bagerhat (8) - a scenario that is very similar to previous years except Munsiganj, since these places are also host to a high concentration of SME and large industries.

Sector Number of Death % of total Constructions 147 39.4 Service 101 27.1 Manufacturing 93 24.9 Transport 26 7.0 Agriculture 6 1.6 Total 373 100%

Table 3 shows the number of deaths was highest in the Construction sector (147) followed by Service (101), Manufacturing (93), and Transport (26) sector.

Though the total number of workers involved in manufacturing compared to the construction sector is higher, the number of deaths is higher in the construction sector, suggest that there are significant risks in this sector.
