| dc.description.abstract | Within the last few years, the manufacturing industry has shown a tremendous expansion in Ethi opia. The garment sector in particular, takes the lead with an immense coverage of different parts in the country. Thus, the fast expansion of the sector has become an attractive hub of employment opportunities for most female employees who are not even or less educated in the country. There fore, this paper focused on assessing the special protections of female employees at Bahirdar Tex tile and garment factory in particular. The primary objective of this paper is then to show the practical working conditions of these female employees in the factory by assessing the protection of their basic employment rights at work. The human rights conditions of those female workers were assessed using an empirical research ap proach. Purposively selected female employees, leaders and concerned government officials were interviewed in order to gather sufficient data, in addition, the research used survey questions and personal observation as tools of data gathering. The paper used both primary and secondary data collected from a number of data sources. Partic ularly, various workplace-related rights were investigated. In this regard, the right to equal remu neration, workplace safety, protection against sexual harassment, the implementation of special benefits as recognized by law, the freedom to form associations and collective bargaining, and the right to compensation for workplace injury have been critically examined in this study. The collected data was then analyzed using “narrative analysis” method. The result of this study revealed that, despite the factory installed various regulatory systems which enables to a better protection of women rights at work, there were also identified problems that require legislative as well as administrative intervention, such as poor provision of safety tools, inconsistent payment of compensation for work injury and problems in applying similar recruitment criteria at all time. | en_US |
