SHEIN discovered two cases of child labor through supplier audits in 2023, leading to immediate contract terminations with manufacturers after violations were identified.
Despite previous issues with labor practices, Shein claims that as of Q4 2023, no cases of child labor were found, signaling a potential change.
The complexity of Shein's dispersed supply chain complicates oversight, making it difficult to fully ensure compliance with labor laws across numerous manufacturers.
In response to criticism over working conditions, Shein pledged $15 million to improve its factories and conduct more frequent audits, though impacts remain unclear.
