Child Labor
Who is making your everyday product?
Child Laborers and Major Retaliers by Jake MacGregor
Without retailers the trade industry would not be where it is today, but not many people know that major retailers such as Hanes use child labor to make their products. Only 36 out of 42 retailers had established codes of conduct for their suppliers that prohibited child labor. This means that six of your major retailers use child labor to make their products. Also on top of being put to work these children work in horrible conditions that are dangerous for their safety and are punished if they do not meet the quota of how many products they have to make a day. People need to be aware that child labor is used to make some of their everyday products and we need to work together to put a stop to these cruel and unruly acts.
