[DOC] Wal-Mart response to ProDESC report raising concerns about serious labour abuses in Wal-Mart México (Walmex)
It is puzzling to find that even though the document is devoted to the analysis of a government-sponsored, the point of view of the authority, much less that of Wal-Mart, is completely absent throughout the book. The student volunteer baggers program is a long-standing, government-sponsored program...The program falls under the umbrella of the local social assistance programs for teenagers (14 to 16 years old)...This program provides an opportunity for Mexican students to occupy their free time with a productive activity, and it is designed in accordance with the International Labor Organization's guidelines...Our commitment to observe the law also applies to our women associates.
