PAGES 6 AND 7 BOWING TO PRESSURE Bangladesh, Retailers In Key Safety Steps By KRISTI ELLIS and MAYU SAINI IN A MAJOR VICTORY for labor rights activists, the Bangladesh government on Monday granted the right of workers to form trade unions in the core textile and apparel industry. The move came in a day of dramatic developments TUESDAY, MAY 14, 2013 Q $3.00 Q WOMEN’S WEAR DAILY as fi ve of Europe’s largest retailers — H&M, Inditex, C&A, Primark and Tesco — agreed to sign a binding, WWD fi ve-year fi re and building safety agreement covering hundreds of factories and thousands of garment work- ers in Bangladesh. The decision came in the wake of one of the worst industrial accidents in history as the collapse of the Rana Plaza garment factory building in Savar, Bangladesh, has now claimed the lives of 1,127 people. The companies said Monday they will sign on to a new agreement called the “Accord on Fire and Building Safety in Bangladesh” with labor unions that requires that companies mandate and pay for reno- vation and repairs to ensure factories in Bangladesh are made safe, among other provisions.

PVH said Monday it has agreed in principle to sign the revised agreement and will com- mit up to $2.5 million to underwrite the program.
