The working conditions in the garment industry are people getting killed
because there boss did not follow the rules of the building."In April, a
building in Bangladesh collapsed, killing 1,127 workers and injuring
about 2,500 others. ...Investigators later discovered that the
building’s owner had illegally added extra floors and allowed the
companies inside to install heavy equipment tat the building wasn’t
strong enough to support.". i used this quote because is shows how much
the boss does not care about the workers. another example from a website
called Nike workers 'kicked, slapped and verbally abused'
is "One worker at the Taiwanese-operated Pou Chen plant in Sukabumi said
she was kicked by a supervisor last year after making a mistake while
cutting rubber for soles." I chose this one because that slapped her for
no reason.
this is sickening. we keep buying these shoes but have no idea what goes on behind the scenes. stop the abuse now!
