    I wonder if the shirt was made by someone as young as the child displaying it? Something to think about. Behind every good deal there could be another story, whether good or not so good.

    Take care everyone.

    Wal-Mart, Hanes and Other U.S. Clothing Companies Exploiting Children

    Child Labor Is Back: Children Again Sewing Clothing for Wal-Mart, Hanes and Other U.S. Companies

    NEW YORK – October 24 – The following was released today by the National Labor Committee (NLC) on child labor:

    An estimated 200 children, some 11 years old or even younger, are sewing clothing for Hanes, Wal-Mart, J.C. Penney and Puma at the Harvest Rich factory in Bangladesh.

    The children report being routinely slapped and beaten, sometimes falling down from exhaustion, forced to work 12 to 14 hours a day, even some all-night, 19- to 20-hour shifts, often seven days a week, for wages as low as 6 and a half cents an hour. The wages are so wretchedly low that many of the child workers get up at 5 a.m. each morning to brush their teeth using just their finger and ashes from the fire, since they cannot afford a toothbrush or toothpaste.

    The workers say that if they could earn just 36 cents an hour, they could climb out of misery and into poverty, where they could live with a modicum of decency.

    In the month of September, the children had just one day off, and before clothing shipments had to leave for the U.S., the workers were often kept at the factory 95 to 110 hours a week. After being forced to work a grueling all-night 19- to 20-hour shift, from 8 a.m. to 3 or 4 a.m. the following day, the children sleep on the factory floor for two or three hours before being woken to start their next shift at 8 a.m. that same morning.

    The child workers are beaten for falling behind in their production goal, making mistakes or taking too long in the bathroom (which is filthy, lacking even toilet paper, soap or towels).

    In 1996, after Charles Kernaghan and the National Labor Committee revealed that Kathie Lee Gifford’s clothing line for Wal-Mart was being made by 12 and 13-year-olds in Honduras, the resulting scandal and publicity was enough to virtually wipe out child labor in garment factories around the world producing for export to the U.S.

    Exactly a decade after the Kathie Lee Gifford scandal, children are again sewing clothing for Wal-Mart, Hanes and other U.S. companies,” said Charles Kernaghan, director of the National Labor Committee. “Children belong in school, not locked in sweatshops. Wal-Mart, Hanes and the other companies owe these children, and must now provide them with stipends to replace their wages and cover all necessary expenses to send them back to school.”

    Corporate monitoring has again proved a miserable failure, as Harvard Rich was certified by the U.S. apparel industry’s Worldwide Responsibly Apparel Production (WRAP) monitoring group. Not only did the U.S. companies fail to notice the child workers, the beatings, the excessive mandatory overtime, but also that not one single worker in Harvest Rich was paid the correct overtime pay legally due them. Any worker daring to ask for their proper wages, or that their most basic legal rights be respected, would immediately be attacked, beaten and fired.

    “Right now, more than 100 children at the Harvest Rich factory are being threatened with firing,” says Kernaghan. “It is time for the U.S. companies to act immediately, today, to guarantee that this does not happen and that the children are returned to school.”

    yep, *yawn* Alex im not sure why exactly you have a huge vendetta against walmart, but seriously now I’m always going to shop there.
    I hope you dont wear nike, gap, sean john… well actually pretty much any clothes because a lot of those companies have been caught before as well, got anything more current then 2 years ago?

    The only people I know against walmart this much are amway quixstar pushers lol.

  8. eri says:

    I don’t think Walmart is the problem so much as the fundamental values of our society where profit maximization rules all. And even if you oppose some of the happenings in this society as Alex does you still have to live within it’s constraints and limitations. As I posted in the newer Walmart thread, ideals are nice to have (and it’s great he has a head on his shoulders and is able to adhere to a certain moral stance) but they are often irrealistic if the world is working against you..

  9. mememe says:

    oh well … to each his own! I love walmart and am perfectly happy to shop there often and i will keep doing so. But thanks I guess for putting information out there to allow people to make their OWN decision.

  10. Lezlo says:

    I don’t understand how a free shirt from sunlight has anything to do with anything in these statements. I have my head on my shoulders but certainly dont go on msg boards posting progaghanda against things I dont like.

    If someone doesnt want the free shirt because of fundamental values then pass on it 🙂

    Its just a freebie people.
