Cambodia garment workers - expression and repression in the garment industry
Manage episode 377108084 series 2866939
The garment industry is Cambodia’s largest employer, with more than 850,000 workers. The three largest markets are the European Union, the destination of 40% of the production, followed by the United States at 30% and Canada at 9%. So, if we purchase clothing made in Cambodia, how concerned should we be about whether there were inadequate wages and rights abuse where the clothing is made?
In this episode of Human Rights Magazine, Marley Markham speaks with experts about the garment factories and the extent to which they do, or do not, support decent working conditions and worker protection.
Human Rights Magazine is produced by The Upstream Journal magazine. The host, Derek MacCuish, is editor of both.
