This week in OpenDiaries, garment workers in Bangladesh share their day-to-day highlights, providing an intimate look into their daily routines. All respondents discuss activities outside of the workplace as their favorite parts of their day, frequently mentioning times of rest, prayer, and conversation with family. Additionally, we asked workers how they would use extra income if their pay were to increase. Many respondents said they would save money for their children, particularly for their education. A few respondents mention that they would save money for their daughters’ marriages.
