Answer:

Among the worst paid in the world

Step-by-step explanation:

There are over 3 million garment workers in Bangladesh that are employed by the industry. This accounts for 80% of the country's export revenue. As of January 2020 they were paid a mere U.S.D $0.39 per hour. In this primarily based woman's industry they work over 12 hours per day and are asked to to many over-time hours that they cannot refuse in fear of getting terminated. During the times of fashion industry peaks. These workers are made to work more hours and still receive very little pay. In more recent years efforts to make the workplace fair and safe has been organized by various worker's rights groups and in time the goal is to equalize treatment and earn a true living wage.
