This book examines and evaluates various private initiatives to
enforce fair labor standards within global supply chains. Using
unique data (internal audit reports, and access to more than 120
supply chain factories and 700 interviews in 14 countries) from
several major global brands, including NIKE, HP, and the
International Labor Organization's Factory Improvement Programme in
Vietnam, this book examines both the promise and the limitations of
different approaches to actually improve working conditions, wages,
and working hours for the millions of workers employed in today's
global supply chains. Through a careful, empirically grounded
analysis of these programs, this book illustrates the mix of
private and public regulation needed to address these complex
issues in a global economy.
