Shein reveals child labour cases at suppliers

Quick Summary:

The Chinese fast fashion giant has been tightening scrutiny of firms that make the clothes it sells.

The firm says it temporarily suspended orders from the suppliers involved and did not resume business with them until they had stepped up efforts to tackle the issue.

Under the new rules, any child labour or forced labour violations have become grounds for immediate termination of contracts.
