Nike, the global sportswear giant, is facing mounting pressure over human rights concerns in its supply chain. As reported by Reuters and other sources, the company is grappling with allegations of wage theft, forced labor, and inadequate worker protections across its manufacturing facilities in Asia. Investors, human rights groups, and labor advocates are calling on Nike to address these issues and improve transparency in its supply chain practices.

Everyone’s talking about worker rights now, but the second those limited-edition Jordans drop, it’s all forgotten. We need a bigger shift in how we see consumption and corporate responsibility, or this cycle will continue.

Wage theft and forced labor in Asia? Not surprised. This is how global giants keep prices low and profits high. If Nike is serious, they’ll overhaul their whole supply chain, but they’re not gonna cut into their margins for ethics.

Classic case of 'Just Do It' only applies to making profits, not respecting human rights. Nike has been called out for this before. Time to actually clean up their act, but we all know they'll throw PR at it instead.

Human rights groups calling out Nike is like an annual tradition at this point. The real question is, why aren’t governments clamping down on these practices? Corporates won’t change unless regulators force them to.
