Auret van Heerden : Making global labor fair (transcript)
Summary
In our life, products and services we use every day are offered by people who work. For them, the meaning of work is thought that it's not money. The most important thing for labor is a human being, in person, they work hard.
However, there are a lot of companies where their dignity is ignored in the world. In fact, especially, companies recently called global supply chain don't formally deal with them. Then sweatshops are created while slipping the law but have no abilities and systems to protect them. Governments are failing to do the right thing and it becomes difficult for national level to deal with also. It turned out that governments and nations can't do anything but seek only parochial interest but there are no human rights, products’ safety and basic dignity in them.
However, the speaker tells us that only private sectors and we can help laobr, even if governments can't do.
First, to provide a safe space where people can face the same problems, because the problem is just the lack of trust, confidence and partnership between NGOs, campaign groups, civil society organizations and multinational companies. When there's no fear of judgment and recrimination there, it leads to the solution. The world should know that it's giving the thoughts that are dignity, trust and human being back to labors, making global labor fair and you can buy brands products safely and peacefully.
