5 Years On: What effect has Rana Plaza had on garment workers lives?

London - It has been nearly five years since the worst accident in the history of garment industry took place. On April 23, 2013, an eight-story building housing several garment factories, as well as a shopping center named Rana Plaza, collapsed in Dhaka, Bangladesh - killing 1,134 people and injuring more than 2,000. Although there were clear signs that the building was constructively unsound - large cracks appeared in the walls of the building the day before it collapsed - laborers were ordered to get inside and to get work or risk losing their jobs. In the end, they ended up losing so much more.
