*Information about how well or how badly the production chain treats it's [[employee]]s. This information has quite different meanings in countries of different development stages. For example in Finland the right to and the ability to belong to a trade union can be taken for granted.

In less developed coutries such laws may not exist or they are not upheld. If this is the case, then examination of these matters should be conducted on a regional or per company level. Due to the radically varying [[worker's rights]] situation in different parts of the world it seems impossible to form a unified, comparable indictor. | *Information about how well or how badly the production chain treats it's [[employee]]s.
