[PDF] UK retailers, Cambodian sweatshops & the audit industry [scroll to pg. 4]

Serious allegations about the treatment of workers at a clothing supplier to many of Britain's leading high street names have come to light...Retailers including Next, Debenhams, BHS, Wallis (part of Arcadia) and Dorothy Perkins (part of Arcadia) are said to source goods from the Fortune Garment and Woollen Knitting Factory...What worries me more is the role of external auditors and associated initiatives such as the ETI [Ethical Trading Initiative]. Was the audit of Bureau Veritas accurate? Why was it not consistent with other assessments? Did the factory get away with deceiving the auditors? Were the auditors able to conduct an accurate inspection and get adequate access to workers? Were the auditors well enough trained?
