POLICE have fired rubber bullets and tear gas to disperse thousands of garment workers who blocked streets outside Bangladesh's capital to demand factory owners raise their minimum wage.
Police say at least 50 people were injured in Sunday's clashes outside Dhaka.
Police official Abul Kalm Azad said the workers were demanding that their minimum monthly wage be increased to 8114 takas ($A105), up from the current 3000 takas ($A40).
He said the workers attacked some factories and torched a van.
Factory owners are unwilling to increase the wage beyond 3600 takas, according to the Bangladesh Garment Manufacturers and Exporters Association.
Bangladesh earns about $US20 billion a year from exports of garment products.
