You decide to visit India and take the opportunity to tour through the factories, meet the employees, and get a first-hand look at the operations. Once in India you notice some disturbing trends, along with unethical decisions made by local managers and practice by local workers.

Some of the main concerns are:

• The employees work round the clock for very little pay
• The ventilation system is really old and there is no fresh air coming in while the machines are on
• There isn't enough safety manuals, orientation and training for everyone, some workers reported injuries and other safety related incidents
