Bangladesh Bank has directed all scheduled banks in the country to construct women-friendly washrooms to ease difficulties faced by female employees and customers. The central bank issued a circular on Tuesday, sending it to the managing directors and chief executive officers of all banks. The directive emphasizes that many banks lack adequate, hygienic facilities for women, causing inconvenience for both staff and clients.
According to the circular, every bank must ensure women-friendly and sanitary washrooms at their head offices, regional offices, branches, and sub-branches. The central bank further instructed that existing washrooms requiring renovation or lacking sanitary supplies must be promptly upgraded. Regular monitoring has also been stressed to maintain a safe and hygienic environment for women employees and customers.
The move aims to improve workplace and service conditions for women in the banking sector, ensuring better hygiene and inclusivity across all banking facilities.
