Bangladeshi workers fight back

Warning;

This report makes grim reading.

It also offers some hope that the violations detailed in the report are being taken seriously by the brands using this company.

"How did they not know this was happening?" you might reasonably ask.
Record falsification is a frequent and common problem. In this particular case, the management at both factories seem to be particularly aggressive in their use of it. Bribery and corruption of auditors by factory management are also common problems.

Read the full report here and ask yourselves, could this be happening in my supply chain. The answer is of course, it might. If you are not engaging with your factories first hand, and are not reviewing their management systems to see if they have the capability to meet compliance codes of conduct, this could well be you.
