<i>Unique model</i>
Mirdha's report on the new methodology of handling garment factory issues is clear and something to notice! This matter should be brought to the notice of all garment factory owners. It might be an easy and entertaining approach which might resolve many unnecessary factory disputes. The idea of the drama format highlighting workers' problems like provision of pure and safe drinking water, as stated in this case, and similar such work related matters can be of great help to the factory management. It could be a noble approach to ease shop floor misunderstandings and tension and for improving worker-management relations. I believe this unique trend of introducing workers to their rights as well as the duties and responsibilities of the management towards safety and compliance issues through dramas deserve widespread publicity in garment factories. Congratulations to DRC for introducing this novel concept in easing unnecessary tension in the shop floor. As stated by the Executive Director of a garment manufacturer, it has simplified their problems through this audio-visual presentation to ensure that compliance matters are understood by all factory personnel. I believe there is a good possibility to extend this novel approach to all other industries to make the workers and their supervisors aware of the issues of safety and hygiene and other relevant areas. The Inspector of Factories should be made aware of this problem solving tool to take a lead in encouraging the introduction of such audio-visual presentation for the different types of industries.
