取られた措置: In a reported "industry first", US solar panel manufacturer First Solar disclosed results of its audit at its Malaysia factory which uncovered "unethical labor practices". Following the findings, First Solar has said it had taken steps to remediate the abuse, including returning passports, wages and recruitment fees to the impacted workers. The company also said it had taken action to ensure workers received one day off in seven and that working hours did not exceed this. First Solar CEO said the decision to disclose the findings was in line with the company's commitments to transparency and raise awareness of labour exploitation risk in its and the industry's supply chain. The company is reportedly engaging with the four involved subcontractors to change their practices. Further, at the end of August, the Malaysian Government announced an investigation into the four contractors. A spokesperson confirmed First Solar had made sure the migrant workers received their salaries and had their passports returned to them.
