UK: Labour Behind the Labour Report reveals labour exploitation amidst Covid-19 pandemic at Leicester garment factories supplying Boohoo

“Report: Boohoo & Covid-19: The people behind the profit”, June 2020

Emerging evidence indicates that conditions in Leicester’s factories, primarily producing for Boohoo, are putting workers at risk of COVID-19 infections and fatalities.
