Kurzbeschreibung:
This report presents new research on violations of international labour standards in Walmart garment supplier factories. Information was collected through interviews and focus group discussions including 344 workers engaged in Walmart supply chains in Bangladesh, Cambodia and India; and an in-depth case study, spanning 8 months, of working conditions in an Indonesian Walmart supplier employing 3,800 Indonesian contract workers.
Section one provides a brief overview of global production networks in general and the garment global production network in particular. Section two reviews Walmart’s public commitments to promoting decent work in their supply chains and the efficacy of these initiatives to date. Section three provides a brief overview of the market share of Asian garment value chains and more focused country profiles on the Bangladeshi, Cambodian, Indian and Indonesian garment industries. Section four discusses, in detail, the intensive labour exploitation and abuse faced by workers in Walmart supply chains in Bangladesh, Cambodia, India and Indonesia.
