Research note Wages and working conditions in and out of global supply chains: A comparative empirical review
This review of empirical evidence on working conditions seeks to determine whether wages and working conditions are better in or out of global supply chains. Understanding the relative wages and other working conditions in exporters compared to domestic producers can help authorities make better policies and laws that will support sustainable development and economic growth. This review considers and compares evidence from firms that participate in global supply chains to those that do not. Although global – or cross border – supply chains exist in all countries, this analysis focuses on the manufacturing sector in developing countries, where concerns have been expressed about low wages and poor working conditions as potential consequences of participation in global supply chains.
