BANGLADESH; capital, city DHAKA: One of the unhealthiest activities in the low-wage country Bangladesh is the recycling of batteries in Lalbagh. This work is done by women or girls. Battery-workers die young. The sized batteries are shipped mostly from rich Western countries to Bangladesh and processed there. The woman is working with a hammer in a dark work place in traditional costume with headdress. Her arms and bare feet are black with dirt.
