DHAKA - A new report claims the Alliance for Bangladesh Worker Safety is overstating progress made by Bangladesh factories in repairing safety defects in factories supplying to member companies such as Walmart, Gap, VF Corporation, Target and Hudson's Bay Company. The report, published by four worker rights organisations, claims many of the factories listed as "on track" on the Alliance website still face major safety hazards. "These brands, despite knowing about these risks for a considerable time, have failed to make sure these factories are safe," says the report.
