The Bangladesh Garment Manufacturers and Exporters Association (BGMEA) has joined forces with Manabik Shahajya Sangstha (MSS) to provide comprehensive eye care services to the workers and staff of garment factories, reports UNB.
A Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to this end was signed by BGMEA Secretary General Md Faizur Rahman and MSS Adviser Tarikul Ghani in the presence of BGMEA President Faruque Hassan at BGMEA Complex on Sunday.
This partnership seeks to bring these essential eye care services directly to the garment factory workers and employees.
MSS established its Eye Care Programme to identify and treat preventable blindness and provide affordable, comprehensive eye care services to the underserved populations.
Under the MoU, MSS will organise temporary eye care camps within the premises of BGMEA to provide a range of services such as eye examinations, vision testing, and the provision of eyewear.
BGMEA President Faruque Hassan said, "BGMEA is committed to improving the well-being of the garment workers. The association has taken various initiatives for ensuring welfare of garment workers and will continue its endeavors in the coming days."
