U.S. Department of Labor and DOJ Sue Hyundai Over Child Labor in Alabama
May 30, 2024, 07:55 PM
The U.S. Department of Labor has filed a lawsuit against South Korean auto giant Hyundai Motor Co., an auto parts plant, and a labor recruiter over the illegal use of child labor in Alabama. The lawsuit, filed on Thursday, alleges that a 13-year-old girl worked up to 60 hours per week at an Alabama auto-parts supplier for Hyundai. This marks the first time the Department of Labor is holding a major company liable for child labor at a subsidiary. The Labor Department is also seeking an order requiring the companies to relinquish profits related to the use of child labor. The DOJ is also involved in the lawsuit.
