If working overtime without adequate/legal  compensation constitutes a sweat shop, then Gucci is not the only one. Try just about every brand selling in the USA. The story would be far more interesting if the reporter could find out why they are working so much overtime, and why the wages do not meet the legal requirement. I have a feeling Gucci's purchasing practices might come under some scrutiny.

 Luxury Italian fashion brand Gucci has been accused of being a “sweatshop” by five people who used to work in the company’s store in Shenzhen.

China Daily reported that the former employees had complained of having to work overtime without adequate compensation, and of having to get permission to go to the bathroom or have a drink of water.

In an open letter, the ex-workers said they had had to stay on until 2am or 3am to conduct inventory checks, and had seen their salaries cut when items left in their charge were found to have vanished.

According to reports in Beijing, Gucci has so far declined to comment on the reports, except to say that it is investigating the allegations.

Gucci and parent company PPR failed to respond to just-style’s request for comment on the story.
