NIKE has been accused by a group of 70 investors and more than 50 human rights groups for failing to compensate over 4,000 workers in its supply chain in Cambodia and Thailand.
The first claim involves workers from the Violet Apparel factory in Cambodia, which closed in July 2020, allegedly, without paying $1.4m in legally owed wages and benefits.
Additionally, Nike is accused of an “illegal wage theft scheme” at the Hong Seng Knitting factory in Thailand in 2020, reportedly depriving Burmese migrant workers of nearly $0.6m in wages, now amounting to $0.8m with interest.
