What the link doesn’t say why Brazil put China’s BYD on list of shame for workers’ past slavery-like conditions
Chinese workers hired by Jinjiang in Brazil had to hand over their passports to their new employer, let most of their wages be sent directly to China, and fork over an almost $900 deposit that they could only get back after six months’ work, according to a labor contract …
A raid by labor inspectors also found the laborers living crammed in lodgings without mattresses. Thirty-one workers were crammed in a single house with only one bathroom and food piled up on the ground alongside personal belongings, in what inspectors said were “degrading conditions.”
It’s not difference to BYD Hungary, and it’s reportedly even worse at BYD’s Chinese factories.
