The bar is set so high with the legislation, that it is cheaper to employ sewers in a factory than to follow the letter of the industrial law that the "fairwear" legislation is trying to enforce. Thus, companies like ours employ factory sewers and lose the opportunities of individual sewers which for a number of reasons can realistically only work well from home. The only alternatives are to import readymade garments, work outside the letter of the law or give up on clothing manufacture because it is too hard to have any sense of certainty of legitimacy.Marco Parigihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00702055111711651319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5104479.post-52967034408710277302011-10-19T06:34:39.364+10:002011-10-19T06:34:39.364+10:00I don't get get it - the article is all about ...I don't get get it - the article is all about compliance costs.

The costs of the "tax" itself is where the cost is in the CPRS. The cost of the fairwear scheme is not compliance, but lost opportunity. Consumers and businesses alike lose faith in the Australian product.Marco Parigihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00702055111711651319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5104479.post-62307640532013122592011-10-18T14:07:13.260+10:002011-10-18T14:07:13.260+10:00How does the proportional magnitude of these compl...How does the proportional magnitude of these compliance costs compare with that of the Carbon Pollution Reduction Scheme? <br />Just asking. :PChris Fellowshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03020350770567584929noreply@blogger.com
