Moreover, TNCs have the capacity to employ of age workers at reasonable hours for a living wage but instead choose to fill their investors and CEOs pocketbooks by chaining children to sewing machines. The WRC works to verify conditions in sweatshops and then reports labor standards violations to its university members. PAO held two sweatshop forums explaining the intricacies of this issue, and almost 600 student petition signatures and 60 students were presented and present at the final student senate meeting when the WRC resolution passed resoundingly. The atrocious labor conditions in sweatshops ought to concern all workers. Please get involved.
Action is the antidote to despair.
