BUSINESS ETHICS TO EMPLOYEES
“The Gap”
I. PROBLEM
· The GAP INC. ... Media inflames the issue by featuring news on human rights violations and subsistence-level wages at suppliers in Central America where GAP is sourced out, thus, calls for immediate attention from Gap before mass hysteria (boycott of the product) and government actions (legal means) take place. ... At the press conference of the National Labor Committee, their representatives and two women from GAP accused the organization of a “cover up” in the Mandarin situation. ... National Labor Relations Committee urged consumers to boycott the GAP and telephone or write to Gap executives voicing their displeasure about conditions at their vendor’s factory. ... GAP adopted a set of Sourcing Principles and Guidelines to provide standards to vendors including no discrimination policy, no forced or prison labor, no children under 14 y/o, safe working environment, legal minimum wage, meet all applicable local environmental regulations, and comply with Gap’s own standards, neither threaten nor penalize employees for their efforts to organize or bargain collectively, and uphold all local laws.
