L’Oréal is choosing to ignore modern-day slavery

Despite the dangerous work, laborers are suffering in silence. L'Oréal Is Ignoring Modern-Day Slavery in Brazil for a Key Cosmetics Ingredient      Sign Now      Arfin,   In the vast, sunbaked landscapes of Brazil's Piauí, workers face grueling conditions to harvest carnauba wax, a crucial ingredient in products we use daily, from cosmetics to food. Despite the difficult, dangerous work, these laborers suffer in silence, trapped in a cycle of exploitation that is essentially modern-day slavery. With L'Oréal being one of the most prominent companies buying carnauba wax from the local distributor, Brasil Ceras, it is imperative that L'Oréal leverages its influence to champion the cause of these workers.   Sign the petition to demand L'Oréal raise its labor standards for Brasil Ceras, ensuring the carnauba wax in their products is sourced ethically and responsibly!   Up until now, it is clear L'Oréal is choosing to look the other way when it comes to the human rights abuses that go into the company's precious wax. The mega-corporation boasts social responsibility, yet is clearly choosing to avoid getting involved in the labor rights horror show. A federal investigator explained, "It's comfortable for the industry not to see the problems, because they don't need to act, they don't need to invest, they don't need to pay." Sign the petition to urge L'Oréal to ensure their carnauba wax comes from a place of fairness, respect, and ethical labor practices! Thank you, Jess Care2 Petitions Team P.S.
