摘要
This documents the large number of labour days lost by principal income earners in a low-income settlement (bustee) in Khulna, owing to illness or accidents. It also shows how the poorest households lost most work days, most income and much the highest proportion of monthly income and how this affected the nutritional status of different family members.
