My Thoughts!


Sweatshops are made by big corportations to get work done cheap. Sweatshops are uasually factories in poor countrys where they could pay the employess extremely low wages. The corportations do not care about the area where they oporate. They dont take care of the people or the factories. The idea of sweatshops is to get more money, and nothing else. Dangerous conditions, usually where the workers have few rights. This can include exposure to harmful materials, hazardous situations, extreme temperatures, or abuse from employers. Sweatshop workers are often forced to work long hours for little pay, Child labor laws may also be violated. Sweatshop have been around a long time since the 1850 where they where used to make clothes and furniture. People who defend sweatshops say that they offer higher wages and better working condition compared to their previous jobs. They say that a Poor country could turn itself into a rich country with the money income form sweatshops.
