Navigating Bangladesh's Labor Laws with Digital Time Tracking
Time tracking in Bangladesh requires compliance with stringent labor laws, which mandate standard working hours of 8 hours per day and 48 hours per week. For businesses, ensuring compliance with these regulations is crucial to avoid legal penalties. The Bangladesh Labour Act, 2006, allows for extended working hours up to 10 hours per day and 60 hours per week, provided the average does not exceed 56 hours. Accurate time tracking systems are essential to manage these limits effectively.

This is vital for calculating overtime pay, which must be compensated at twice the regular rate. By using Harvest, businesses can maintain robust digital records, facilitating compliance with local labor laws and streamlining payroll processes.
