wages.
Deichmann said
it was not aware of issues with the factory, but escorts was conducting its own
investigation and would take any action necessary.
According to
the report many workers complained of sweltering conditions in summer and
freezing factories in winter. “My hands are freezing, I’m shivering all over
and the door to the hall is open all the info time,” one worker said. “If I get sick

labelling as ‘made in Europe’, is duping consumers into thinking their products
are made with dignity,” she said. “In fact, we now know that workers in Albania
and Macedonia are being paid wages so low that they cannot feed their
families – so much so that the gap between the minimum and living wage is
greater than in China.
