Bangladesh to send 50,000 women workers abroad in next fiscal year

DHAKA, May 26 (Xinhua) -- The Bangladeshi government expects to receive demand orders for sending 55,000 women workers abroad in the next 2010-11 fiscal year (July 2010 to June 2011), mainly for housekeeping services, according to local media on Wednesday.

The parliamentary standing committee on Labor and Employment Ministry Tuesday disclosed the details on the prospect of migrant labor, leading English news paper The Daily Star reported.

After completing a 21-day training course, a woman can go abroad and engage in the service at a cost of 30,000 taka (429 U.S. dollars) only, according to the committee.

The government plans to send about 50,000 women workers against the demand orders in the next fiscal year, said M Israfil Alam, chief of the committee.

Unemployed women can easily take a three-week training course on housekeeping from technical training centers (TTCs), run by the labor ministry, and can fit themselves into jobs abroad, Alam added.

The labor ministry is listing the women who have completed training at the TTCs.

In the current fiscal year (July 2009 to June 2010), the government has so far sent 34,000 women to different countries, including Lebanon, UAE, Jordan and Saudi Arabia against demand orders for 40,000.
