Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The only comprehensive historical analysis of the globalization of the U.S. apparel industry, this book focuses on the reemergence of sweatshops in the United States and the growth of new ones abroad. Ellen Israel Rosen, who has spent more than a decade investigating the problems of America's domestic apparel workers, now probes the shifts in trade policy and global economics that have spawned momentous changes in the international apparel and textile trade. Making Sweatshops asks whether the process of globalization can be promoted in ways that blend industrialization and economic development in both poor and rich countries with concerns for social and economic justice—especially for the women who toil in the industry's low-wage sites around the world. Rosen looks closely at the role trade policy has played in globalization in this industry. She traces the history of current policies toward the textile and apparel trade to cold war politics and the reconstruction of the Pacific Rim economies after World War II. Her narrative takes us through the rise of protectionism and the subsequent dismantling of trade protection during the Reagan era to the passage of NAFTA and the continued push for trade accords through the WTO. Going beyond purely economic factors, this valuable study elaborates the full historical and political context in which the globalization of textiles and apparel has taken place. Rosen takes a critical look at the promises of prosperity, both in the U.S. and in developing countries, made by advocates for the global expansion of these industries. She offers evidence to suggest that this process may inevitably create new and more extreme forms of poverty.

Download or read book Survey Responses from Women Workers in Indonesia's Textile, Garment, and Footwear Industries written by Mari Pangestu and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: April 1997 Overattention to the minimum wage may have led Indonesian firms to lower other costs, including those associated with overtime pay and safe working conditions. Indonesia's workers need to be made more aware of the rights and benefits to which they are entitled. Young, single, women workers dominate the labor-intensive textile, clothing, and footwear industries in Indonesia. This survey interviewed 300 such workers to examine three main questions: (1) Are firms complying with labor regulations? (2) Are women workers aware of their legal rights with respect to wages and working conditions? (3) Does the presence of the official labor union (SPSI) in the workplace make a difference in the implementation of labor regulations? The survey finds that compliance with minimum wages was high - 80 percent of the permanent workers earned at least the minimum wage. Compliance was also high for maternity leave and hours worked a week (forced overtime work was not a major issue). Compliance was low for overtime compensation and menstrual leave with compensation. Compliance with labor regulations was higher for large firms, higher based on length of service, and relatively higher in textiles and garments compared with footwear. The survey finds that workers are most knowledgeable about the minimum wage rate and least knowledgeable about overtime pay. The minimum wage regulation has the highest compliance rate, while overtime pay the lowest compliance rate, by firms. The survey also found that half the members of the official labor union thought that it had not been effective in improving their wages or working conditions. While fewer workers knew whether a collective labor agreement existed in their workplace, most of the respondents who were aware of one indicated that it resulted in improved working conditions. This paper - a product of the Indonesia Policy and Operations Division, Country Department III, East Asia and Pacific - was written as part of a broader study of Indonesia's labor market. It was presented at a joint workshop of the Ministry of Manpower and the World Bank, Indonesian Workers in the 21st Century: Workshop for Economic Reforms and Labor Market Restructuring for Indonesia, Jakarta, April 2-4, 1996.
