ED: Treating the workers right

There is no reason for our valiant workers to be an afterthought. They deserve better
The International Labour Organization’s (ILO) statements, calling for the occupational safety and health (OSH) of all workers in all industries to be looked at as a national priority, are timely and important, and must not be looked at lightly. 

While it is true that worker safety has come a long way, particularly in the wake of the Rana Plaza tragedy, we have a long way to go before we can claim to have an environment that our workers feel safe to work in.
