    Guilty until proven innocent: Pakistan's textile trade on trial

    The article discusses how European lawmakers often unfairly label Pakistan's textile industry as complicit in labor abuses without sufficient evidence, despite the sector's formal regulations and compliance mechanisms. It highlights that child labor in Pakistan exists primarily in informal sectors, not in regulated export factories, and cites data showing minimal non-compliance rates in wages and overtime payments.
