Issues have come up as recently as last summer. It's difficult to adjudicate every single claim because Zara always has some excuse. But ask yourself: why has this company attracted so many claims for so long? IMO, the issue is structural: fast fashion is inherently exploitative.
Report at Business and Human Rights Centre reads: Morocco: Global brand garment factories accused of labour abuses against women workers; incl. co. response Text reads: Workers in Morocco’s garment sector, mostly women, reportedly face widespread informal employment, wage violations, repression of union activity, and hazardous working conditions in factories and workshops producing for global brands, including Mango. Workers in both legally established factories and informal subcontracted workshops describe excessive production targets, unpaid overtime, lack of access to basic hygiene facilities, and workplace harassment. A former worker cited producing garments for Mango and Zara under intensified quotas that led to deteriorating health conditions and irregular layoffs. NGOs and unions report that minimum wages are rarely paid outside unionised factories, and union activity often leads to threats, dismissals, or isolation. The rise of informal outsourcing, lack of effective enforcement, and recent legislative changes further restrict freedom of association, especially for women. Some employers have declared bankruptcy while owing unpaid wages and severance, leaving workers with little recourse.

Talk doesn’t lower prices. Savings don’t happen by accident.

They happen when we fight and win.
