Rana Plaza

- ‘loser’ of global shift

- Issue with outsourcing

2013, Bangladesh

• Collapse of 8 storey commercial building → structural failure - earlier warnings were dismissed

• Over 1,100 died

• 29 brands eg. Primark, many companies refused to confirm they received garments from there until labels found in wreckage

Future change :

• Prompted landmark agreement between brands + trade unions - worker safeguarding

• TNCs expected to know full supply chain
