Show Notes

In part two of our conversation with Dr. Divya Jyoti, a lecturer at De Montfort University in Leicester, Divya tells us about her research findings. How do the codes of conduct put in place by buyers for suppliers create hidden work for workers on the factory floor? How does something intended to make garment factories a nicer place to work actually end up creating an extra time squeeze? What would be a better alternative? Is the problem with the codes of conduct themselves, or how they’re implemented? And how can activists and labor rights advocates be effective allies?
