Question:

Many U.S. companies outsource activities, such as manufacturing, to factories in Asia and Latin America. For example, Nike manufactures shoes in Indonesia and Hewlett-Packard uses electrical parts made in Chinese factories for its computers.

What are the advantages of maintaining a policy that offers consistent employee rights on a global basis? What are the disadvantages of such a policy?
