Let’s not be too quick to canonize Nike.
Philip Knight, Nike’s multibillionaire Chairman and chief executive, managed to generate a lot of positive press recently when he announced that independent organizations would be allowed to inspect the overseas factories that make his company’s products, that he would toughen the health and safety standards in the factories, and that he would crack down on the use of child labour. There is both merit and a lot of smoke in Knight’s initiative.
The admission into the plants of truly independent observers from local nongovernmental organizations would be a great advance, If Knight follows through in good faith on this promise, the working conditions in the factories are likely to improve, and it will be substantially more difficult for other large apparel companies to resist similar pledges.
The proposed improvements in health and safety standards, which would bring them in line with standards in the United States, are also important. Footwear factories are equipped with heavy machinery that can cause serious injury, and much of the raw material used in the factories is toxic. Many workers at plants turning out shoes for Nike and other international companies spend their days inhaling dangerous fumes.
选项
答案
拥有数十亿资产的耐克公司董事长兼总经理菲利普?奈特,最近设法赢得了舆论的大量好评,因为他宣布允许独立的机构组织去视察生产耐克产品的国外工厂,宣称他将强化那些工厂的卫生和安全标准,还说他将采取严厉措施禁止雇用童工。奈特的这番主动行为有可取的地方,但其中也有不少烟幕。 允许非政府组织的真正独立的地方观察员进入那些工厂,这应该是一个巨大的进步。如果奈特真心诚意地兑现这个许诺,那些工厂的劳动条件将有望得到改善,而其他名牌服装制造公司要想不做出类似的承诺肯定会更加固难。 提出对卫生安全标准进行改进,使其符合美国的标准,这一点也很重要。制鞋厂通常配备有可能造成严重伤害的重型机械,工厂使用的许多原料都是有毒物质。
