The Employment Injury Scheme (EIS Pilot) is a milestone for Bangladesh’s export-oriented ready-made garment (RMG) workers, with the potential to shield them from the financial storm of workplace injuries and death. 

Last week, the EOG was joined by the International Labour Organisation (ILO), Giz and Oberalp for a webinar on the Employment Injury Scheme Bangladesh (EIS). This pilot project has been put in place to bring insurance to workers in Bangladesh, and provide them with financial protection in the event of suffering an injury or death while at work.
