1 INTRODUCTION
The name of the thesis chosen in both qualitative and quantitative methods
is 'Customer satisfaction in a small restaurant' and the name of the author
was Nina Naidenova, and the supervisor of that thesis was Eliisa Kotro. The
thesis was almost 43 pages, including four pages of appendix.
The thesis's primary aim is to bring new customers to the Vino restaurant for
lunch or dinner. During the evaluation, it was noticed that the existing
customer portfolio summary had become outdated and needed to be
replaced. According to the conclusion, despite the study's limitations, the
customer's persona (profile) is completed, and problems are discovered. In
addition, the persona would assist in creating a new persona in response to
evolving consumer demand and the introduction of a simple tool for gathering
information in a real-time environment. The persona and empathy map tool,

The health status of garment workers is a fascinating subject for the study.
According to the specifications, no thesis papers related to garments or
garment workers can be found. Two papers were chosen using a combination
of qualitative and quantitative methods. These were selected because of
familiarity with their structure, trends, goals, strategies, and findings. These
will help for doing a thesis on the interested area.
2 TOPIC
1.1 Title
The garment market, on the other hand, plays a vital role in providing job
opportunities for rural illiterate women who would otherwise be forced to work
as maidservants. As a result, the garment sector has provided rural people
with a new avenue to participate in Bangladesh's economic activities.
The workers in this industry live hand to mouth and struggle to meet their
basic needs with their earnings. They cannot afford to maintain essential
health services, medical services, sanitation, and hygiene facilities, and
access to other amenities is a distant dream. They're still among the lowest-
paid workers on the world[ CITATION Abs01 \l 1033 ]. As a consequence,
they were forced to deal with a variety of physical difficulties. Consequently,
the working conditions in garment factories are not conducive to good health.
Furthermore, garment workers are dissatisfied with their potential prospects
due to lower pay, which affects their mental and social well-being. According
to sources [ CITATION WHO48 \l 1033 ], "Health is a state of complete
physical, mental, and social well-being that goes beyond the absence of
illness or infirmity." On the other hand, Bangladeshi garment workers are still
unable to maintain any of the WHO-recommended health conditions.

There are several reasons for supporting this topic, in my opinion. One of the
key reasons is because I want a clear picture of the health status or condition
of garment workers and the diseases that workers in this industry face, as well
as what is going on in the garment industry since there are so many people
involved in the garment industry, such as textile, spinning, farmers, dyes and
chemicals, scrub of textile goods, accessories and vendors, suppliers, and
employees.
1.3 Objectives
2. Do the garments workers get the necessary healthcare facilities from the
garments factories in Bangladesh?
3. Which diseases can affect garment workers in the short term and long term
for long working hours?
4 LIMITATION
There are some limitations to this research. The greatest obstacle in this
situation would be investigating and gathering information. Moreover, the
reason for this is confidential information. The administration will not support
any material relevant to the report in order to protect their organizational
policy.
As the data will be dependent on primary data, the sample size will be
insufficient for the proposed scenario. Furthermore, because of the time
constraint, the outcomes were also constrained. When collecting data, we will
also find many people who are unwilling to answer questionnaires because
they may assume that they will be in trouble with their administration in the
future.
The research strategy did not include determining the source of garment
workers' ailment, the state of their medical bills, or the explanation for the
growth in their sickness. The research will solely look at the health status of
garment workers and the ailments that they are suffering from, and a proposal
will be made so that high officials are aware of the problem.
Both qualitative and quantitative research methods will be used. The area
which is abundant with garment factories will be selected for conducting
research purposes. The survey will take place at Gazipur, Dhaka. There are
around 2072 garment factories in this area, and I will try to cove about 10% of
garment factories in this area, which encompasses around 200 factories. Both
the Qualitative & Quantitative research methods will be used to gather
information from the garment workers.
To undertake this research, I will collect both the primary & secondary data.
I will try tocollect primary data from various factories on specific scheduled
both the interview & questionnaire method for research project.
The secondary data will collect from a source that has already been published
bearing on health status of garments workers in Bangladesh.
The following are some ways I will try to collect information related to my
selected topic.

Data will be measured through content analysis and assigned scores. The
Multiple OLS (Ordinary Least Square) method will be applied for analyzing the
relationships among the variables. This delineation is not, however final,
further tables and analyses may be considered if needed. EViews and STATA
are the robust statistical program that allows users to analyze, manage, and
visualize data graphically. It is primarily used to study data trends by
academics in the domains of economics, business, and different area of
science. These softwares will be used for data analysis.
Now the question is that why I chose this method to collect information. From
my perspective, for the research purpose, I have selected both the qualitative
and quantitative methods as I think that both methods will need to accomplish
my investigation. Another thing is that to collect primary data, I have decided
on two methods (interview & questionnaire) out of six methods as I have found
that to collect data, this two will need less time than the others.
3 THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK
While there appears to be a strong link between these models and workplace
self-protective behavior, little consideration has been given to how they could
apply to actions that workers are expected to take to protect themselves from
job-related hazards.
The HBM has provided the most health-related study by any organization.
That is also the only one created solely to illustrate how people behave when
it comes to their well-being.
The likelihood that a person would adjust their health habits to avoid
consequences is proportional to the intensity of the repercussions they
anticipate will occur. The intensity of an illness can have a significant influence
on one's overall health. However, according to several research papers, the
perceived risk level is the least effective predictor of whether or not people
would participate in preventive health practices. The research will be based on
the health status of garment workers in Bangladesh. So the theoretical model
will be fitted with the research paper.
(a) attitude toward the action, which consists of assumptions about and
evaluations of the effects of executing the behavior;
Aside from minimal examination of the HBM and TRA constructs concerning
personal protective equipment, there will be minimal effort to apply the value-
expectancy models to worker safety and health. However, when seen as a
whole, these models highlight several aspects that should be considered
