Who we are
The RMG Sustainability Council (RSC) is an unprecedented private national tripartite initiative to carry forward the significant accomplishments made in workplace safety in Bangladesh. The RSC was set up by three incorporating members representing each of the three constituents from Industry, Global Fashion Brands and Global and Local Trade Unions.
The RSC conducts structural, electrical, fire & life safety and boiler safety inspections, supports and monitors remediation, conducts safety training, and operates an independent occupational safety & health complaints mechanism available to workers in covered RMG factories.
The company’s vision is to deliver world-class sustainable workplace safety programmes and to make the RMG Industry a safe and better place to work.
