Description
The Bangladesh tannery industry is a major economic driver generating over $1 billion annually through leather and footwear exports, but it is heavily marred by severe environmental pollution and poor labor standards. Workers bear the brunt of these challenges, with daily laborers earning just $1.70 to $2.50 USD per day and regular staff averaging roughly $60 to $145 USD per month .Long-term tannery workers frequently suffer from skin disease.
