The Daily PollTHE DEATH TOLL from the collapse of a garment factory in Bangladesh last month has now risen past 1,000, in the latest of a spate of factory-related tragedies in the country.
Most of the employees at the factory near Dhaka were earning around $40 a month, making clothing for brands such as Primark and Mango. On the day of the incident, employees were forced to work in the building despite the appearance of cracks in the structure the previous day.
