Jayna is 15 years old. Jayna’s company provides accommodation, but it is small and she shares it with 5 others. Cheaper to run in other countries such as Asia. Information about Jayna/LEDCs Jayna would like to give up her work in a factory and go home but she can’t afford to. The money paid on clothes doesn’t go to the factory workers it goes straight to the brand. Jayna moved away from her family a few months ago as there was no work in her village. Work in Asia/China is cheaper due to a low skilled workforce. Jayna barely earns enough to pay her rent. Can produce cheaper goods and then make a profit on them.

Standard of living is very high in the UK. Elizabeth can no longer afford to go on holidays abroad every year. Elizabeth is looking for other sewing work but all the factories are closing. Elizabeth lives with her husband and has 3 children. People expect and want too much in the UK. Elizabeth left school with few qualifications; she worked in a factory making polo shirts.
