this t-shirt is on sale at Walmart in the USCA
at an incredible five dollars and 97 cents
how is this price possible meet miles away from the shop
shipped around the world stored in a warehouse
and then went to the shelves at the store of course
Walmart is a giant it's the world's biggest retailer
and the third largest employer in the USA
alone walmart has more than 4,600 stores
in which $130 million people shop each week
and around the world every second
400 people shot that one of the ten thousand seven hundred stores
that Walmart has in 27 countries wal-mart had revenues
a 460 6.1 billion dollars
in net sales in 2012 Halcomb Walmart stay at the top with that extraordinary
profitability
when its selling t-shirts at 597 let's begin by having a look at a Walmart
store in the usa
the average hourly wage in the workers that sell this t-shirt is eight dollars
in 81 cents
which translates to an annual pay of 15,000 576 dollars
based upon Walmart full-time status up 34 hours per week
this is significantly below the federal poverty level
here we have a first hint and what about benefits
if you're a part-time employees which miss Walmart workers are
you don't get any health care coverage by the company
Walmart hold another record on est
it is the employer that has the highest percentage of workers
having to rely on government assistance does receiving more than one billion
dollars per year
in subsidies from the US taxpayers faced with these conditions
don't Walmart workers in the USA complain they do
but every worker he speaks out these is instant retaliation measures
ranging from disciplinary hearings to our cuts
and even dismissal but let's get back to the journey of our teacher
Walmart is the largest remover and seller of goods
in the world most to the goods sold at Walmart in the US
are made abroad when arriving in the country they're stored in giant
warehouses
run by third party contractors hired by Walmart agency workers
any day laborers work inside these warehouses in an extremely stressful and
dangerous environment were injuries in accidents are common they're paid very
low wages
tied to a piece rate system receive no benefits
and face retaliation if the report injuries per complain about conditions
and what we find is the follow the t-shirt back to its place of origin:
Walmart supply chain comprises more than 100,000 suppliers
and millions of workers the company's purchasing practices
aim to get the maximum flexibility and the lowest prices from its suppliers
who in order to do business with Walmart pass on these pressures to their own
workers
with very poor pay and often dangerous working conditions
our t-shirt is made in Bangladesh
the world's second most important Garmin producer
Bangladesh textile workers are among the lowest paid in the world
60d 80 hour work weeks no overtime pay
no health care and illegal subcontracting
are common workers who speak out about these conditions and try to organize
regularly face intimidation dismissal
and even violence walmart is the second-largest buyer
garments from Bangladesh a country where more than half of textile factories
are vulnerable to collapse empires with fatal consequences have become
commonplace
after the largest factory fire in the history of Bangladesh
in which one hundred and seventeen workers died Walmart explicitly refused
to pay more to
upgrade Bangladeshi factory buildings
and even after the deadliest industrial accident in the history of the world
when the run a plaza building collapsed I'm 1,129 people died in horrendous
circumstances
Walmart refused to join a large number of global companies
that signed a legally binding agreement to improve building empires safety
in Bangladesh
perhaps our five-dollar n97 send t shirt was made
right here run a plaza that would mean at Walmart is a top company
because it aims to cut costs and any price across its giant supply chain in
stores
without any consideration for ethical standards for social responsibilities
and this certainly doesn't only affect those supplying I'm working for Walmart
with its size and reach Walmart is dictating standards
that affect workers in all industries an all around the world
leading the global race to the bottom for working conditions
bed taking wanna giants such as wal-mart requires workers and unions
every part in the supply chain and in the stores to join forces
the Uni Walmart global Union Alliance is demanding
that the company improve working conditions respect the rights and its
global workforce
and sign a global agreement with unique which insures that wal-mart employees
all over the globe have a fair opportunity to fully exercise their
rights to freedom of association and collective bargaining
workers are also uniting across Walmart supply chain
to win dignity and safety
well walmart has a history of labor rights violations
on a global scale together
he must stop wal-mart's race to the bottom
together we can bring a human face to Walmart supply chain
together we will gain respect for wal-mart workers
all around the world
