NSTworld Top brands accused of using forced Chinese labour
Top global brands such as Apple, BMW and Sony have been accused of getting supplies from factories using the forced labour, an explosive allegation that could reverberate in boardrooms across the world.
"Some factories across China are using forced Uighur labour under a state-sponsored labour transfer scheme that is tainting the global supply chain.""Companies using forced Uighur labour in their supply chains could find themselves in breach of laws which prohibit the importation of goods made with forced labour or mandate disclosure of forced labour supply chain risks," the report said.
"We work closely with all our suppliers to ensure our high standards are upheld," the statement said. An estimated one million mostly Muslim ethnic minorities have been held in internment camps in Xinjiang.
