Abstract
Guangdong province is famous for its many sweatshops. Discussions in the past have focused on factory pollution, working conditions, and use of child labour. This article addresses ethical issues associated with sweatshops, particularly, disrespect for employees and violations of the privacy of employees. A management approach is proposed based on John Rawls’ theory of justice.
