The first tea garden was established in 1854 at Malnichhara in Sylhet. Sylhet is a place of Tea gardens in Bangladesh. Two other tea gardens, such as Lalchand and Matiranga were established in 1860.Tea production in Sylhet increased with notable rapidly. There are about three lac of people are working there and 75% of the workers are female. Human rights are the fundamental rights in a democratic country. Every nation of the world must be active for the human rights of all the citizens. In this study, it is highlighted the concept of human rights initially. The human rights related laws are constructed for all workers. In a third world country like Bangladesh, bottom level worker face numerous problems and found themselves in a slavery place which creates a big gap between the owner and workers relations.The massive dilemma is researchers are not strongly paying attention and studied on the concept of basic human rights of the workers especially the tea plantation workers. So, there is no available information related to human rights of tea garden workers. On the way, only analyze social as well as economic conditions; working conditions of tea plantations workers is not appropriate. Socio-economic condition is the one kind of indicator of the human rights. Most of the researcher only focuses on the workers working situation. For this, it is the pivotal problem of the research.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →This book focuses on the core problems of occupational health, safety and well-being of workers in the informal sector in developing countries, where it accounts for most of the rural labour force and a substantial percentage of the urban labour force. The sector is characterised by low incomes, unstable employment and lack of protection in the form of legislation/policies or trade unions. Though some health and problem-solving measures have been introduced, a focused academic effort to address the problems confronting workers in the unorganised sector, or informal economy, is lacking. The book evaluates workers’ physical and mental health in the context of labour migration, social inclusion of minorities and the differently abled, provisions for women workers, demonetisation, occupational safety for hazardous work, and in connection with various areas of informal work, e.g. agriculture, construction, transportation, sanitation, tanning, the tobacco industry, powerloom industry, surrogacy, and self-employment. It provides a well-rounded description of an analytical reflection on the challenges these workers face and focuses on social policy changes to help alleviate them. Accordingly, it offers a valuable asset for researchers and students interested in development studies, the sociology of work, health and labour economics, public health, and social work.

It brings history up to the present, thereby showing how history can assist in explaining contemporary conditions and trends. The author focuses on labour and economic development problems and uses the World Systems theory so as to demonstrate the practical utility of the theory and its limitations as a guide to historical research. Based on extensive archival research, the book interprets the dynamics of plantation capitalism by focusing on the work, life and struggle of the dalits on plantations in colonial and post-colonial South India as they evolved from the mid-19th century. It argues that these elements of the plantation life-world were fashioned by the specific characteristics of the workers' location within the capitalist world-economy, the then prevailing local social structure and the scheme of disciplining to which the workers were subjected to. Treating the relations among various social forces – the planting communities, the oppressed communities (dalits in India), the regional and national state, and the Imperial regime, this book fills a gap in academic literature on capitalism, economic development, and globalization.
