At the same time, Shein’s investigation found that hours at the factories were higher than permitted by local regulation, though “significantly less than claimed in the documentary,” according to the company. Shein said it has since raised the issue of work hours with the manufacturer and scaled back orders until it takes “effective action.” While Shein defended itself and its suppliers against the documentary’s claims, the company also said its increased investment means it can ramp up unannounced checks on suppliers, as well as invest more in compliance training. Shein reported 2,600 independent audits of supplier facilities in the past 12 months. In its 2021 sustainability report , Shein said working hours accounted for 14% of the violations in its supply chain audits. The company also said it has implemented a feedback system allowing workers in its contracted factories to submit complaints anonymously via email, phone or the messaging app WeChat. The quick turnaround in fast fashion supply chains has long created challenges in ensuring fair and safe labor practices, and scrutiny on fashion as a whole has increased . The sheer volume of fast fashion’s production also creates myriad other sustainability challenges, including around climate and the environment. For instance, an academic study this year of H&M and Everlane in the journal Cleaner Supply Chain and Logistics found that “that fast fashion has failed to sufficiently engage upstream and downstream stakeholders” in their sustainable supply chain strategies. In September, Shein announced its intent to cut emissions by 25% across its supply chain by 2030, which represented one of the company’s first public steps to cut its carbon footprint. Its plan includes working with suppliers to transition to renewable energy sources and reduce energy use.
