Measuring Social Impact in Bangladesh
The Sudokkho Porgramme helps factories establish an effective in-house technical training system for workers. Sudokkho was launched in 2015 with funding that included the UK and Swiss governments. When this funding ended in 2020, Primark continued to finance and support the garment factory component of this program in its supply chain.
The Primark team worked with 60dB to develop a questionnaire to understand the impact of the program on participating workers. This was conducted by 60dB through phone conversations in the local language and the interim insights are positive.
