A joint report by the National Labor Committee and China Labor Watch entitled “New Balance Goes to China,” details working conditions at Di Chang, a Li Kai owned factory in Hongyuan, China. Li Kai is a major supplier of New Balance footwear. On average, one Li Kai factory supplies 12 million pairs of shoes each year. Labor rights violations included the following:
* Illegal discrimination based on gender, age, height, province, and origin
* Wages below subsistence level. Workers earn $0.40 an hour, $3.22 a day. After mandatory deductions for dorm and food expenses, daily earnings drop to $2.55 at most
* Routine 10 hour shifts, six days a week
* Mandatory overtime shifts, without full overtime pay
* Denial of paid holidays, marriage and bereavement leaves, to which Chinese workers are legally entitled
* Lack of benefit rights for workers such as health insurance, work injury insurance and pension programs
