Canada Investigates Nike and Dynasty Gold for Alleged Use of Forced Uyghur Labor in China

Canada's ethics watchdog, the Canadian Ombudsperson for Responsible Enterprise (CORE), has launched investigations into allegations that Nike Canada and Dynasty Gold benefitted from Uyghur forced labour in their China operations. The investigations were prompted by complaints filed by a coalition of human rights groups. Nike denies having ties to the companies accused of using forced labour, while Dynasty Gold claims the allegations arose after they left the region. The probes mark the first investigation by CORE since its complaint mechanism was launched in 2021. A United Nations report in 2022 found that China had committed serious human rights violations against Uyghurs, which Beijing denies.

Canada Investigates Nike and Dynasty Gold for Alleged Forced Uyghur Labor in China

Canada's corporate ethics watchdog, the Canadian Ombudsperson for Responsible Enterprise (CORE), has launched separate investigations into Nike Canada and Dynasty Gold over allegations that they used or benefited from forced Uyghur labor in their supply chains and operations in China. The investigations were initiated following complaints filed by a coalition of civil society organizations. This is the first investigation of its kind by the Canadian agency. The allegations against Nike Canada and Dynasty Gold involve their supply chains or operations in China, which are accused of using or benefiting from Uyghur forced labor. The companies have not yet responded to the allegations. CORE has the power to refer findings to a parliamentary committee for further action if companies are found guilty.
