????Nike ????? Crisis: Sweatshop protests ????? Year: 1990s ????Protest against Nike's (NKE, Fortune 500) labor conditions abroad escalated in 1992 after Harper's published an article highlighting that the company paid its Indonesian workers less than minimum wage. Demonstrators appeared at the Olympics that year in Barcelona to speak out against Nike's perceived exploitation of factory workers. Nike initially resisted the criticism. It wasn't until 1998 that the company faced the issue head on. "The Nike product has become synonymous with slave wages, forced overtime, and arbitrary abuse," then-CEO Phil Knight said in a speech. Knight also announced that he would raise the minimum age of his company's global workforce. Today, Nike continues to be transparent about its global work conditions and frequently publishes reportsoutlining efforts to improve the lives of its workers. |
