Transparentem recently disclosed a multi-year investigation into labor conditions at three Myanmar garment factories. Their work addressed child labor, hazardous working conditions, and the difficult subject of audit deception. The disclosure concludes, “The growth of Myanmar’s garment industry, prior to the emergence of the pandemic, represented a moment of opportunity for hundreds of thousands of Burmese workers. As the COVID-19 crisis exacerbates the existing vulnerabilities among the workforce in Myanmar, much is left to be done to ensure that progress is sustainable. With appropriate human rights due diligence, pro-active systems to assess suppliers’ commitment to workers’ rights, and robust systems to detect audit deception, it is possible to do business responsibly in Myanmar.” https://lnkd.in/gxseBeW How do you manage emerging supply chain risks? https://bit.ly/2FezdhJ #humanrights #sustainability #responsiblesourcing

The Covid-19 pandemic has amplified the ways in which migrant worker's rights to wages have long been violated. While none of the wage-related problems migrant workers are facing under Covid-19 are novel - delayed wages, unpaid wages, forceful terminations, repatriation without receiving end-of-service benefits, delayed access to justice regarding wages, arbitrary deductions from salaries since the pandemic first appeared in Qatar, these abuses have appeared more frequently.? https://lnkd.in/d7iY_MB #sustainability #covid #migrants #wagetheft
