Shein Faces Renewed Criticism Over Persistent 75-Hour Work Weeks

New report by Swiss advocacy group Public Eye reveals ongoing excessive working hours and stagnant wages at Shein's supplier factories in China.

Public Eye's investigation found workers at Shein suppliers still averaging 75-hour weeks, despite promises of reform.
Employees reported working 12-hour days, six to seven days a week, with minimal wage increases since 2021.
Shein's supplier code of conduct limits work to 60 hours a week, but this is widely ignored.
Workers are often required to fix mistakes unpaid, and surveillance in factories has increased.
Shein claims significant progress in improving conditions, but acknowledges ongoing challenges.
