Breaking Point: Wage theft, violence and excessive workloads are pushing garment workers to breaking point during the pandemic

This research provides a snapshot of how workers in Nike, Primark, and H&M’s supply chains have been impacted during the pandemic in terms of their wages, working conditions, and labour rights.

The research links the struggles of workers in Cambodia, Bangladesh, and Indonesia directly to the wealthy brands who have profited from their labour. When reports provide a generalised overview of the industry, brands often deny that reported violations occur within their own supply chains, defending their business models with unsubstantiated claims. While this report takes a deeper dive into three brands’ supply chains, we recognise that many other garment brands have similar violations in their supply chains.
