2) Make Hugo Boss executives live on $8/hour for a year while keeping none of their executive perks (e.g,, the health care I'm sure they enjoy).
3) If they do this, stop buying Hugo Boss products.
4) And stop voting for legislators who make it fiscally desirable to do this -- demand laws that penalize corporations that screw the country. Contact your legislator and demand an end to supporting outsourcing!
After 41 years at a job, no one should have to lose that job because a greedy corporation is putting profit ahead of people. Hugo Boss wanted to reduce wages 35% to $8.30 an hour for the workers, which is ludicrous!--I doubt Hugo Boss would be reducing the prices of their suits by 35% (or any other amount). Seems Hugo Boss's new business model is to put people who make a living wage out of work and offshore their jobs to sweatshops, where cheaply-made copies of their suits will be produced.
I just bought a jam/sharp Huge Boss suit And notice it was in Turkey. :P they shouldn't charge so much if labor was so cheap.
