A stark pay disparity in Bangladesh’s maritime sector has left ship jobs offering salaries of up to 1.5 million taka while marine academy graduates struggle with salaries below 100,000 taka, raising concerns over workforce motivation. The shortage of qualified teachers at marine academies has been identified as a key factor behind the widening gap, as institutions fail to produce adequately trained professionals. Industry experts warn that the imbalance could hinder efforts to meet global maritime workforce demands. Authorities are now under pressure to address the issue before it worsens.
