DHAKA - The Nirapon garment factory safety programme - which represents 21 mostly North American brands and retailers in Bangladesh - is leaving the country.
The organisation, which took over from the Alliance for Bangladesh Worker Safety, is to shift to a more streamlined structure and will be based in North America.
However, it says it will continue to monitor safety in more than 600 factories via a new third-party monitoring organisation to be announced at a later date.
