Sweatshop conditions






When you think of sweatshops you think of conditions that are bad, dangerous, cramped, hot, unhealthy. When sweatshops are even worst than you may be thinking already. The things that happen there are worst then anything we have ever experinced. Its like being traped and enslaved. They only way the people there could eat is by working in them, but the work they do is bad. The money is not good, for the amount of work being done."Sweatshops are work environments that possess three major characteristics—long hours, low pay, and unsafe or unhealthy working conditions. Sweatshops have been a factor in the production of goods around the world for centuries, but the globalization of business has led increasing numbers of major corporations to take advantage of low-cost sweatshop labor in developing countries. Recent examples of sweatshop conditions in the garment industry have caused an international outcry by labor leaders, activists, and government officials. Although manufacturers tend to deny it, sweatshops still exist, even in the United States." This is done by most of the command companies in the U.S.A. Most of the poducts we buy are made out of the long hours and low pay someone else in the world made. The conditions in sweatshops are worst than anything you could image in the U.S. The lowest paying job could not compare, or the dirty jobs.
