Which Trade Categories Can You Hire from Bangladesh?
Worker trade categories are the specific trades, such as welder, steel fixer or heavy equipment operator, in which Bangladeshi workers are sourced, tested in practice and deployed to Gulf employers. We recruit sixteen, each at the tier your demand specifies, from skilled and semi-skilled workers to general or unskilled workers. Each candidate is tested on the trade before shortlisting, and each selected worker departs with BMET (Bureau of Manpower, Employment and Training) clearance and a mission-attested contract. No worker pays a recruitment cost in any trade: the employer bears it under the Employer Pays Principle. Planning by sector? See the industries we recruit for.
Every trade grouped below is recruited under the Overseas Employment and Migrants Act, 2013 (Act No. 48 of 2013). Manpower BD recruits under Government-Approved Recruiting Licence RL-1472. Reviewed by Manpower BD Team.
- Structural and finishing: steel fixers, masons, carpenters, scaffolders, tile setters, painters
- Mechanical and electrical: welders, pipe fitters, electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, mechanics
- Operator trades: heavy equipment operators, recruited by machine type and licence class
- General or unskilled workers: general helpers, farm workers
- Specialist trades on request, sourced and tested against your specification
What Sets Our Trade Categories Apart?
-
Trade-Tested Before Selection
-
Zero-Cost Worker Visa
-
Costs Fixed Before Sourcing
-
Replacement on Agreed Terms
Selection rests on a practical test on the trade itself, pitched at the standard your demand sets for that tier. A welder welds a test piece, a steel fixer ties rebar to a bar bending schedule and an operator runs the machine type you need. Only candidates who pass reach your shortlist, and our screening and trade testing process shows where and how each test is run.
Every trade category comes with a zero-cost worker visa, so the worker pays nothing to be hired. Under the Employer Pays Principle, the employer bears the agency fee, trade test, GAMCA (Gulf Approved Medical Centres Association) medical, visa, BMET clearance and air ticket. Nothing is recovered later through wage deduction, so workers start the contract free of recruitment debt.
Your recruitment cost is quoted per trade category and headcount in your demand, then fixed before sourcing begins. Because we source and test within Bangladesh rather than through intermediaries, no middleman margin is added along the way. The quote you approve at the start is the basis of your invoice, and the worker is charged nothing at any stage.
If a worker fails the agreed technical standard or is found medically unfit on arrival, we process a replacement without an additional agency fee under our published replacement policy. The replacement comes from the same trade category and passes the same practical test. Every worker, first hire or replacement, is cleared for legal departure through BMET before travel.
How Does Trade Category Hiring Work?
Worker Trade Categories, Answered
Which welding grades can you supply?
We supply 3G, 4G and 6G welders for structural and pipe work. Each welder is tested on plate or pipe in the position the grade covers, so the grade on the certificate is confirmed in practice before shortlisting. List the welding process and material your project uses in your demand, and only welders who pass the practical test are put forward.
Can you supply a trade that is not on your list?
Yes, under custom request. Send the job specification and we confirm whether the trade is currently sourceable from Bangladesh, and at what volume, before you commit to anything. If it is, candidates for that trade are practically tested before shortlisting, like every listed category, and you review the results before selection.
Is a trade certificate enough proof of skill?
No, not on its own. A certificate, including one issued by BTEB (Bangladesh Technical Education Board), shows that a worker trained or passed an assessment once; it does not show how well that worker performs the trade today. The practical test decides whether a candidate is shortlisted, and the certificate is checked alongside it rather than taken on trust.
Are heavy equipment operators tested by machine type?
Yes. Excavator, wheel loader, backhoe, crane and forklift operators are tested separately, each on the machine they will run, rather than grouped as a single operator category. You name the machine type and licence class in your demand, and each operator’s licence is checked against it. Only operators who pass on that machine are shortlisted.
Do workers pay anything for any trade?
No. The agency fee, trade test, GAMCA medical, visa, BMET clearance and air ticket are borne by the employer in every trade category, under the Employer Pays Principle. Nothing is recovered later through wage deduction. The rule is the same for skilled, semi-skilled and general or unskilled workers, so no tier carries a hidden cost to the worker.
