Foreign job creation for Bangladesh workers reached a new high  this year breaking recent records even though the country saw a decline in remittance inflow amid the global economic slowdown, reports The Business Standard. Around 1.02 million Bangladeshi workers were sent abroad till November this year, according to data from the Bureau of Manpower, Employment and Training (BMET). On average, the country sent 93,000 workers per month in 2022, and the number was around 60,000-70,000 in the pre-Covid period. The country has exported more than 76,000 workers in November alone, Shahidul Alam, director general of BMET, said, adding that if the upward trend continues then foreign jobs will hit a record 1.1 million by December this year. Industry insiders have linked the rebound of overseas employment with the reopening of the Malaysian labour market and brighter Gulf economies buoyed by rising oil prices and the normalisation of the Covid-19 situation that allowed new aspirants to go to their respective destinations.
