SOMO and the China Labour Bulletin have released a report titled ‘Chain of Consequences: How Chinese Workers Pay for Supply Chain De-risking.’ The report details how apparel and electronics brands are relocating production away from China to reduce supply chain risks. This shift has left thousands of Chinese workers facing wage arrears, unpaid compensation, and potential job losses. The report emphasizes that global brands and retailers must significantly improve their due diligence and address the impact these sourcing changes have on workers in their supply chains.
