A concreter in Bangladesh earns about 92,400 BDT a year. That's 70% below the national average of 311,700 BDT.

Pay ranges widely from country to country and from role to role. The lowest reported salaries in Bangladesh sit around 40,600 BDT a year, while the very top stretches to 146,200 BDT. Everything on this page is in Bangladeshi taka (BDT, symbol ৳), which lets you compare numbers like-for-like without worrying about exchange rates.

The numbers here are pulled together from official government wage data, large independent salary surveys, and aggregated worker-reported pay. Most reported salaries include the benefits that are common in Bangladesh, such as housing or transport allowances, which is worth keeping in mind if you're comparing against a country where those are usually paid on top.

A typical concreter working in Bangladesh brings home around 7,700 BDT a month before tax. Entry-level pay starts near 40,600 BDT, and the top of the ladder reaches roughly 146,200 BDT for the most experienced and specialised people in the role.

The wide gap between low end and top end reflects how much pay can vary inside the same job title. A junior concreter working at a small local employer earns very different money from a senior at a multinational. Skills, employer, city and years in the seat all push the number around.


How concreter pay ranges in Bangladesh

A good way to think about salary in Bangladesh is to look at the distribution rather than the headline average. Half of all concreters in Bangladesh earn less than 99,920 BDT a year, and the other half earn more. That middle number is the median, and it is usually more useful than the average for answering "is my pay normal here".

Looking at the quartiles fills in the picture. A quarter of earners take home less than 64,040 BDT (the 25th percentile), and a quarter clear 130,400 BDT (the 75th percentile). The middle 50% of concreters sit somewhere inside that band, which is where the typical reader of this page probably lives.

The very lowest reported salaries sit around 40,600 BDT. The highest stretch to 146,200 BDT, though only a small fraction of earners ever reach that level. If you are deciding whether your own offer or current pay is reasonable, work out which of those four bands you would fall into and use that as your reference point.

Concreter pay by experience in Bangladesh

Years of experience is the single biggest lever on pay for a concreter in Bangladesh, ahead of education and almost any other single factor. The longer you have been in the role, the more your employer can trust you to handle complexity, mentor others and act independently, all of which command higher pay. The chart below shows how the typical concreter salary changes as you move through the career ladder.

  • 0-2 Years
    46,040 BDT
  • 2-5 Years
    +40% from previous
    64,300 BDT
  • 5-10 Years
    +49% from previous
    95,760 BDT
  • 10-15 Years
    +19% from previous
    113,700 BDT
  • 15-20 Years
    +9% from previous
    124,400 BDT
  • 20+ Years
    +9% from previous
    136,200 BDT

The single largest jump on the ladder is from 2 - 5 Years to 5 - 10 Years, where pay rises by about 49%. That is the point at which a concreter typically goes from "competent in the role" to "the person other people in the team learn from", and the market pays well for that step.


Concreter pay by education in Bangladesh

Education sits alongside experience as one of the biggest factors driving concreter pay in Bangladesh. Higher qualifications consistently pull higher salaries, but the size of the gap tends to be smallest at junior levels and widens as people move up. Two people in the same role with the same years of experience but different degrees can end up earning very different money once they reach mid-career.

Below is the average concreter salary in Bangladesh broken down by the highest level of education a worker has completed.

  • Certificate or Diploma

Concreter gender pay gap in Bangladesh

The gender pay gap is a stubborn feature of almost every labour market, and Bangladesh is no exception. Male concreters in Bangladesh earn an average of 99,460 BDT a year, while female concreters earn around 82,920 BDT. That works out to a 20% gap in favour of men, even when comparing people doing the same work.

A pay gap of this size has a real long-term cost. Over a typical thirty-year career it can add up to several years of pay, and it compounds through pensions, retirement contributions and bonus-linked stock. Some of the gap is explained by women being more likely to work part-time, take career breaks, or be steered toward lower-paying specialisations. Some of it is straightforward unequal pay for the same job, which is harder to defend.

Pay raises for a concreter in Bangladesh

Most countries hand out at least some kind of pay raise every year, typically when an employee's contract is reviewed or as a cost-of-living adjustment to keep wages roughly in step with inflation. The rhythm and size of those raises varies hugely between industries.

A typical worker doing this role in Bangladesh sees a raise of about 5% every 29 months, which works out to roughly 2% on an annual basis. That figure is the typical underlying rate; in years where inflation runs high you can usually expect a bit more, and in flat-economy years a bit less.

Across all jobs in Bangladesh, the national average raise is around 5% every 28 months.

Concreter bonus rates in Bangladesh

Bonuses are the other half of total compensation, and they vary a lot between jobs and industries. Some roles are paid almost entirely in base salary; others lean heavily on bonus structures tied to revenue, project completion or company performance. Whether a job pays a bonus, how big it is, and how often it lands all factor into whether the headline salary is actually a good offer.
