Abstract:
Private security service industry is flourishing rapidly around the world due to increased security
threats. Bangladesh is of no exception. Private security guards are providing service to divergent
businesses. These businesses serve a variety of industries, including the textile industry and the
pharmaceutical industry, as well as embassies, high commissions, international organizations,
NGOs, educational institutions, offices, and apartment complexes. Although the demand of
private security guards is skyrocketing, the labour rights of the private security guards are not
ensured. Consequently, the said security guards lead miserable life due to lower income and
insufficient labour rights. The aforementioned concern made it imperative to conduct a study on
the labour rights of the private security guards. This study examines the existing labour
legislation in Bangladesh and attempts to identify the gaps in the labor rights protection of
private security guards. This study has also provided recommendations to the issue which can be
a foundational work for the policymakers.
