Outsourcing is done for many reasons. Sometimes companies have more projects than staff and outsourcing offers them flexible bandwidth. The downside to this approach is that it puts stress on staff who have to train or maintain the outsourcer.
- varispeed 6y agoI would understand outsourcing to countries that value human rights, have workers' protections in place and so on. But simply going for the cheapest possible option, where you get forced labour and children making your product simply wrong and indefensible. We at least should lobby online and offline shops to show country of origin on the labels. I wish if I could go on Amazon and have ability to filter out anything that comes from China. If you want to buy something responsibly it is very time consuming and some manufacturers go to great length to hide where their products are really made. Those people who exploited labour in Asia now got filthy rich and they are in position to shush any politician looking to put a stop to this or make sure such filters would not be implemented.
