|
|
High-street clothes retailers Next and H&M found Syrian refugee children being employed in Turkish factories that supply them, according to a survey by a British charity released on Monday.
The report by the Business and Human Rights Resource Centre, a corporate responsibility watchdog, said both companies had acted to tackle the problem after finding Syrian children working in three of their suppliers.
But the charity warned that for other big brands "refugee workers appear out of sight and out of mind," saying only 10 of the 28 companies surveyed responded fully and five failed to do so at all.
The charity says an estimated 250,000 to 400,000 Syrian refugees are working illegally in Turkey, from around 2.2 million who have fled the almost five-year civil war at home.
It added that the Turkish government's move last month to issue work permits for Syrian refugees would reduce their vulnerability although it warned that "many refugee workers are likely to remain illegal". http://www.middleeasteye.net/news/syrian-child-labour-found-turkey-clothes-factories-charity-615340033
