British discovers distress call on garment label

Remember this slave who denounced Chinese forced labour a note hidden in toy? A new case, like, just be reported, this time on the label of a piece of clothing purchased in Primark.

The piece was purchased by Rebecca Gallagher, of 25 years, which read on the label instead of information about washing, the following message: "we are forced to work exhausting hours".

When he saw the message, the young man tried to contact the Primark to ask for explanations, but was not heard by the company. In fact, the company turned out to provide explanations, but only after Rebecca denouncing the case to the press.

A Primark spokesman said that the code of conduct of the clothing store ensures that all its factories and suppliers must offer fair conditions of work employees and asked that Gallagher returned the dress for investigation.

Primark is one of the cheapest clothes stores in the world, having several times been investigated due to slave labor, explains the sustainable planet. In 2008, the company was denounced for hiring Indian children with 11 years for sewing the sequins of her clothes. This year, the brand has created the site Ethical Primark, in which informs consumers of their environment-related practices.

So far, no human rights organization commented on the case of Rebecca Gallagher. Some do it?
