Hasbro OKs worker conditions at Chinese factory

Hasbro Inc. investigated a Chinese factory that produced its Transformers toys following a report by the Institute for Global Labour and Human Rights that criticized the working conditions there. Hasbro, with the International Council of Toy Industries, said that it deployed a team for an unannounced, nine-hour inspection of the Jet Fair facility which “meets with Hasbro’s rigorous requirements.”...“…the inflammatory allegations made by the NGO in their report were unsubstantiated by our investigation. As a matter of course, Hasbro will continue to monitor conditions at Jet Fair and all of our factories,” it said in a news release…Hasbro’s offices were closed this week and company representatives were not available to give further details.
