Default Boohoo facing possible US import ban : Slave workers in Leicester UK

[Boohoo facing possible US import ban
after allegations over use of slave labour
A campaign group claims Boohoo is not
doing enough to stop forced labour
in the factories which make many of its clothes.]


[Duncan Jepson who runs Liberty Shared,
a campaign group against modern-day slavery,
claims Boohoo is not doing enough to
stop forced labour in the
Leicester factories which
make many of its clothes.
Mr Jepson said: "The evidence
of Boohoo and forced labour is quite compelling.
I think it will be a wake-up call for
British institutions about how they're
handling modern slavery enforced labour,
particularly in a community like Leicester East.
"What we'd all like, those of us interested
in improving labour conditions, is for
Boohoo to really get to grips with governance
of their supply chain to ensure there is
no wage theft and people have proper
contracts.]
