What examples are there of exploitation in recent years?

Apple, in China, makes Chinese workers work very hard, in poor conditions, for little pay. The conditions were so bad that the workers started jumping out of the windows. Instead of improving conditions, they put up nets outside the window to keep them from committing suicide. Nike had some factories in South Korea, the workers demanded better working conditions and better pay. Nike moved their factories to Thailand and Vietnam.

How was factory work different from agricultural work in terms of working conditions and tasks?

Factory work differed from agricultural work in terms of working conditions and tasks. In factories, workers faced long hours, repetitive tasks, and often dangerous conditions due to machinery. In contrast, agricultural work involved outdoor labor, varying tasks, and a connection to nature.


What sort of lifestyles do Nike workers in LEDCs have?

not too sure about Nike now, but in normal sweatshops, workers have to endure long working hours (ie. 16-18hours a day), low wages (less than the minimum wage), no career breaks or holidays, often abused in many ways.

Why do Nike workers work in Asia?

They work in Asia in sweatshops where it costs the company a pittance to pay employees compared to manufacturing them in the United States. A worker once stated that it would take her a whole month's salary to pay for one pair of Nike shoes. She also stated that the management would beat her in the face with a shoe if they found her work to be unsatisfactory. Nike used to be my favorite brand, but after hearing the above on a 60 Minutes tv show - I no longer buy Nike in protest of sweatshop conditions. Shame on Nike.
