Here is another great website that I found. It's called Stop Sweatshop Abuses and it is all about sweatshops and how to stop them.
For those people who don't know what a sweatshop is a sweatshop is: A manufacturing workplace that treats its workers inhumanely, paying low wages, imposing harsh and unsafe working conditions, and demanding levels. Factory workers get poor pay and are very common in the clothing industry. Some companies that use sweatshops are Nike, Disney, The Gap, Tommy Hilfiger, Wal-Mart, Levi Straus, Old Navy and many more.
It is sad and disgusting to think that companies in this day and age still use sweatshops. Some sweatshops use child labour to get their work done. These children are treated like slaves and are beaten and payed very low wages.
If you think that this sounds disgusting and inhumane just don't buy anything from companies such as Nike that uses sweatshops. Also visit the Stop Sweatshop Abuses website and learn how to make a difference.
