3 Motivation Globalization of production has provoked fierce debate over labor standards Child labor, excessive work hours, hazardous working conditions, poor wages rampant in 3 rd world factories In absence of functioning international organizations capable of promoting global justice and/or nation-states willing or able to enforce domestic labor codes, codes of conduct and other forms of private voluntary regulation have become dominant method MNCs and NGOs address problems with labor standards Does Monitoring Work? If not, what does?
4 Paper #1: "Does Monitoring Improve Labor Standards? Lessons from Nike" Factory Conditions Vary Across Sectors & Countries First M-Audit Scores across all factories (Nov to Jan. 2005) Histogram: First Maudit score Density Maudit score Density kdensity maudit Number of Observations: 575 Average M-Audit Score: 65% Similar patterns of variation within sectors (footwear, apparel, equipment) and within countries.

7 Paper #1: "Does Monitoring Improve Labor Standards? Lessons from Nike" Are Things Getting Better? B) Change in Compliance Rating Inspections Change in CR Rating Freq. Percent -3 (Down by 3 degrees) (Down by 2 degrees) (Down by 1 degree) (No change) (Up by 1 degree) (Up by 2 degrees) (Up by 3 degrees) Total Note: A is 4, B is 3, C is 2, and D is 1, and the change in CR rating is the score in the most recent audit minus the score from the earliest audit, ranging from 3 to 3. For example, if a factory has a score C in the earliest audit and a score A in the most recent audit, then it has a change of +2.

15 Paper #3: Virtue out of Necessity" Traditional Compliance Model Asymmetric Power Relations Between Global Buyers & Suppliers Importance of Audit-Based Data Incentives Lots of debate over the Model. How to make it more transparent, accountable, rigorous
16 Paper #3: Virtue out of Necessity" Traditional Model of Code of Conduct / Compliance - Brands Exit Factories External Pressures from NGOs, etc Global Brands Codes of Conduct Monitoring / Factory Audits + Improved Working Conditions
17 Paper #3: Virtue out of Necessity" Theoretical & Empirical Weaknesses Ambiguous Power Relations Unclear (Perverse) Incentives Impossible to Generate Accurate Information As a Result, Ritual of Compliance Factories Moving In & Out of Compliance Not Tackling Root Causes of Labor Issues
