Skills, employer, city and years in the seat all push the number around.


How engineering safety coordinator 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 engineering safety coordinators in Bangladesh earn less than 240,500 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 154,700 BDT (the 25th percentile), and a quarter clear 322,600 BDT (the 75th percentile). The middle 50% of engineering safety coordinators sit somewhere inside that band, which is where the typical reader of this page probably lives.

The very lowest reported salaries sit around 102,160 BDT. The highest stretch to 357,300 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.

Engineering safety coordinator pay by experience in Bangladesh

Years of experience is the single biggest lever on pay for an engineering safety coordinator 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 engineering safety coordinator salary changes as you move through the career ladder.

  • 0-2 Years
    116,380 BDT
  • 2-5 Years
    +35% from previous
    157,600 BDT
  • 5-10 Years

    +10% from previous
    308,900 BDT
  • 20+ Years
    +8% from previous
    332,500 BDT

The single largest jump on the ladder is from 2 - 5 Years to 5 - 10 Years, where pay rises by about 47%. That is the point at which a engineering safety coordinator 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.


Engineering safety coordinator pay by education in Bangladesh

Education sits alongside experience as one of the biggest factors driving engineering safety coordinator 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 engineering safety coordinator salary in Bangladesh broken down by the highest level of education a worker has completed.

  • Bachelor's Degree

Engineering safety coordinator gender pay gap in Bangladesh

The gender pay gap is a stubborn feature of almost every labour market, and Bangladesh is no exception. Male engineering safety coordinators in Bangladesh earn an average of 246,200 BDT a year, while female engineering safety coordinators earn around 204,700 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.
