Kurzbeschreibung:
Gap currently operates 3,300 stores and employs more than 150,000 employees across their global production network. Brands like Gap wield the potential to transform working conditions through their supply chains. Gap has not, however, committed to ensuring a living wage for workers beyond U.S. employees and fails to disclose their suppliers […]
Rather than upholding rights and work for garment workers overseas, Gap maintains high pressure sourcing models within the garment global production network that create overwhelming incentives for factories to reduce costs and speed production by ignoring labour standards.
Section one provides a brief overview of global production networks in general and the garment global production network in particular. Section two reviews Gap public commitments to promoting decent work in their supply chains, including through the Gap Code of Conduct and partnership programs. Where possible, it includes discussions and research on the efficacy of these initiatives to date. Section three provides a brief overview of the market share of Asian garment value chains and more focused country profiles on the Cambodian, Indian and Indonesian garment industries. Section four discusses, in detail, the intensive labour exploitation and abuse faced by workers in Gap supply chains in Cambodia, India and Indonesia.
