Bangladesh announced a new salary structure for its garment factory workers on Tuesday, including a 56% increase in their monthly minimum wage.
Critics say the influential factory owners should do more for the workers.
The decision came after weeks of violent protests by workers demanding a $208 monthly minimum wage. Workers have demonstrated in the streets, attacked factories, fought with police and burned vehicles.
