Leather tannery factory
This is a leather tannery in Dhaka, the capital of Bangladesh. A worker who was blind in one eye was shaving hair off the surface of the skin using a T-shaped tool. Since the water pollution caused by the chemicals used in the tanning process had become serious, it was decided that all the tanneries in Hazaribagh, Dhaka, would be closed by the end of 2016 and moved to suburbs.
