H&M has said that:<br />

“Due to the lockdown in Bangladesh, as well as the drop in customer<br />

demand that fashion brands and buyers have experienced as a result<br />

of <strong>COVID</strong>-<strong>19</strong>, the supplier you refer to has partially closed down two<br />

units that produce for, among others, H&M Group. All workers<br />

affected by the layoffs have been compensated in accordance with<br />

national legislation and agreements with trade unions.”<br />
