Italian Authorities Investigate Luxury Fashion Brands for Labor Practices
Italian police have initiated a comprehensive investigation into the labor practices of major luxury fashion brands, including Prada, Gucci, Versace, Dolce & Gabbana, and Adidas Italy. The inquiry focuses on the companies' supply chain practices, particularly their connections to subcontractors accused of exploiting workers in Chinese-owned workshops. Although none of the brands are currently under investigation, authorities are scrutinizing whether these companies have sufficient controls to prevent labor abuses. This investigation is part of a broader effort by Italian authorities to protect the integrity of the 'Made in Italy' label and address labor exploitation in a sector that produces over half of the world's luxury goods.
