What else can I help you with?
What are the age of workers working in the sweatshops in Mexico?
I guess you mean underage workers. Most of them are from 8 to 14 years old.
How many people die a day from sweatshops?
There is no specific number of deaths attributed solely to sweatshops each day. However, working conditions in sweatshops can lead to accidents, health issues, and even fatalities among workers due to poor safety standards, long hours, and other factors.
Why do people get outraged by sweatshops?
You would probably get outraged if a relative of yours was working 12 or more hours a day for just a few dollars.
Why are these children working in the sweatshops and where are their parents?
They are often children whose parents sold them or gave them to work in sweatshops because the family is too poor to feed them.
What is the average age of a sweatshop worker?
The usual age is around 13 years, but considering sweatshops break many other human rights and laws, there may be no age limit in some sweatshops.
Would people working in sweatshops be any better off if the factories were not there to employ them?
Yes, people working in sweatshops would be better off if the factories were not there to employ them. Sweatshops offer extremely horrible working conditions, higher number of working hours and measly wages, causing workers in sweatshops to be threatened by potential work hazards. As of today, Mexico has a minimum wage of only $4.93 per day, Bangladesh has a minimum wage of only $24.03 per month, while Canada has a minimum wage of $10.25 in Ontario per hour. This is a glaring disparity between the countries, and many people in Mexico and Bangladesh are earning less money than they need even to fulfill their most basic needs. The incomes from the sweatshops are hardly helping the families. Apart from this, the employees in these poor condition sweatshops are seldom protected from toxic chemicals. The pollutants from the substance that colours clothes in the garment industry can be inhaled and cause serious health problems after a long period. Breathing complications may arise even if employees inhale small particles of fabric, floating in the air into their lungs. These sweatshops not only adversely affect their employees, but also have a disastrous impact on the environment. The factories produce hazardous waste and air pollutants like carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxides, among others, that can build up over time to contribute to global warming, and other environmental problems. Because these sweatshops are helping neither the families nor the environment, people working in sweatshops are basically encouraging the worst for their country and economy.
