Annex Subcategory Indicator Status Prevention and mitigation of conflicts Technology development Corruption 238 Presence of conflicts in the country Risk of conflicts with regard to the sector and measures to reduce the risk Sector efforts in technology development regarding ecofriendliness Investments in technology development Risk of corruption in country /sector around 8.7% and an inflation rate of -0.8% in 2009. 659 The importance of plastics in the Chinese economy is growing as all main industries as automobile, agriculture, consumer goods, foods and beverages, household electronics, infrastructure, etc need large amounts of plastics. 660 However, the degree of automation increases in the sector due to rising labour costs. 661 China is involved in several conflicts, for instance with Tibet, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Vietnam, and others. 662 There are also conflicts within the country: Protests against environmental pollution and labour conditions become more frequent. 663 Especially industrial centres are involved. 664 The risk of conflicts in the plastic industry is classified as moderate, because the sector is not responsible for massive environmental pollution. Motive for conflicts are poor conditions of employment and limited resources of crude oil. The sector does not endeavour to reduce this risk. It is assumed that the investments in ecofriendlier technologies are rather low. No information available. Risk of Corruption and bribery in country: � Corruption Perceptions Index: 3.6 (rank 79) 665 � Bribe payers index: Rank 19 with 3.1 points 666 Risk of Corruption and bribery in sector: It is assumed that the risk of corruption in the plastic industry is moderate. 659 www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/geos/ch.html 660 www.packagingsouthasia.com/news/Recycling_of_Plastics_656.html 661 http://plasticsnews.com/headlines2.html?id=19781 662 Heidelberg Institute for International Conflict Research (2009) 663 http://libcom.org/blog/update-pollution-protests-china-07092009, www.taz.de/1/zukunft/u mwelt/artikel/1/chinas-bauern-proben-den-aufstand-1/?src=SE&cHash=c8bf5c0a09, Jia (2009) and Yilian (2010) 664 Global Times (2010) 665 Transparency International (2010) 666 www.nationmaster.com/graph/cri_bri_pay_ind-crime-bribe-payers-index
B3 TFT-LCD Glass from Korea Stakeholder group workers: Table 63: S-LCI table TFT glass from Korea stakeholder workers Subcategory Indicator Status Freedom of association and collective bargaining Child labour Forced labour Evidence of restriction to freedom of association and collective bargaining in country/sector Presence of unions within the sector and description of their influence Percentage of child labour in country/sector Description of kind of child labour in the company Frequency of forced labour in country/sector Annex The law allows workers in the private sector to associate freely. There is also a law that provides the right for collective bargaining and collective action. 667 However, the ILO criticises South Korea for severe right violations concerning freedom of association and collective bargaining. Especially the Korean Government Employees Union and the Korean Federation of Construction Industry Trade Unions are often target of attacks by the government. Many unions are repudiated by the government. 668 There are approximately 5,890 trade unions in South Korea. Around 10% of total work force are union members. 669 The power of trade unions is rather low. Admittedly, there are strikes, but they are often quelled by the police. 670 No statistics about child labour found. The law prohibits child labour. The minimum age for employment amounts 15 years. 671 Child labour with regard to prostitution is widespread. 672 South Korea is a central point for trafficking of Asian women and children. 673 However, there is no link between child labour and the production of glass. - According to the Korean government, there is no forced labour in the country. The law prohibits forced labour; however, Korea has neither ratified the ILO Forced Labour Convention no. 29 nor the Abolition of Forced Labour Conven- 667 www.state.gov/g/drl/rls/hrrpt/2001/eap/8336.htm 668 KCTU (2006) and www.amnesty-korea.de/Suedkorea/Gewerkschaften 669 Lienemann (2008) 670 www.amnesty-korea.de/Suedkorea/Gewerkschaften 671 www.state.gov/g/drl/rls/hrrpt/2001/eap/8336.htm 672 www.aktiv-gegen-kinderarbeit.de/welt/asien/korea_sued 673 www.state.gov/g/drl/rls/hrrpt/2001/eap/8336.htm 239
