Sweatshops are used by almost every well known company. Many people know this, but few know why. The advantages are obvious; companies get a cheap workforce and gain a substantial profit. However, is what these companies put people through justified? Sweatshops create a dangerous working environment and pay little for the work that gets done. There's often child labor and insufficient health care benefits. But it still happens, because people still buy the goods that they're producing. If you want to put an end to sweatshop labor look into these great alternatives instead.
