Doing business internationally often involves confronting ethical issues that do not arise or that have already been solved to our culture’s satisfaction in domestic companies. An example would be manufacturing operations that use child labor and/or operate with unsanitary or unsafe working conditions. Your competitors may employ such operations, and in doing so gain a competitive edge in production costs. At the same time, wages in such operations often exceed those offered in the country for other forms of work, sometimes by a considerable margin. Finding solutions to such moral dilemmas and developing a position that you are comfortable with is one of the challenges of doing business internationally.

Many employees in sweatshops and even families whose children work in these shops having come from even more abject poverty view their employment as a means to a better life. Make the case for why this sort of employment is in the best moral interest of the workers. Having done that, do you agree or disagree with the position that you have just taken, and why?
