Nike and changed labour policy
• In 1991 – a report was published on working conditions and wage levels at Nike’s Indonesian factories

• In 1993 ‘Press for Change’ an NGO dedicated to raising awareness of labor conditions and wages in Nike’s overseas plants
• A wave of media attention and harsh criticism of Nike’s practices followed
