Nike lawsuit (Kasky v Nike, re denial of labour abuses)
Marc Kasky filed suit against Nike in California state court in 1998 suing the company for unfair and deceptive practices under California’s Unfair Competition Law and False Advertising Law. Prior to the lawsuit, various news reports alleged poor working conditions at Nike’s overseas supplier factories. In response, Nike issued press releases and other public statements rebutting the allegations. Kasky alleged that Nike’s public statements regarding the working conditions in its overseas suppliers’ factories contained false information and material omissions of fact. Specifically, Kasky took issue with Nike’s statements regarding the following: that workers who make Nike products are protected from physical and sexual abuse, they are paid in accordance with applicable local laws and regulations governing wages and hours, they are paid on average double the applicable local minimum wage, they receive a “living wage”, they receive free meals and health care, and their working conditions are in accordance with applicable local laws and regulations regarding occupational health and safety. Nike claimed that the lawsuit was barred by the US Constitution’s First Amendment guarantee of free speech.
