m Nike is one of the multinational
companies that have been hammered
in the Western press over the last
decade for unethical business practices
in the production of apparel, euipment,
and footwear in grim factories with
dismal conditions that are labeled as
sweatshops.

2. ïenient and weak regulations concerning

safety.

3. Health and environment in order to

maximize profits.

human rights.
m In Vietnam during the year 1996-97 Nike
paid wage to the team leaders $42 per
month, which is less than the Vietnamese

minimum wage in Vietnam at that time
was $35.

to meet a daily uota that is set very
high. The average Nike workers are
forced to work 500+ hours of overtime
per year but in Vietnam the labor can
work overtime but not for more than four
hours a day, 200 hours a year.

m The company did not paid correct

compensation for overtime wages, night
shift wages or Sunday wages
m The hours are long, many factory workers
work 11 hours a day, six days a week,
and sometimes have to work on Sundays
as well.

m The major problem is that many areas of

the factory have a high concentration of
toluene, reaching a level of 180 mg per
s. meter when the legal limit is 100 mg
per s. meter.
m The noise level in several area were
found to be much higher than the legal
limit.

m The Sam Yang medical facility is only

staffed with two nurses for about 6000
employees. There is only one doctor,
who is available for only two hours a day,
while this factory operates 20 hours a
day.
m

after he was accused of sexually
molesting several women workers.
m Nike factory workers in Vietnam
complained about freuent sexual
harassment from foreign supervisors while
working on the assembly line.
