Maquiladoras

Maquiladoras The topic that I have chosen to research is on the exploitation of woman in sweet shops, also known as maquiladoras. One of the main reasons that I have chosen to research this topic is for the simple facts that I did not realize that it is still a problem today. It was not until earlier this year when my aunt shared with me a story about a good friend of hers that was exploited in a maquiladora. My aunts’ friend worked in a maquiladora located just south of the Texas border. The cruelest thing that my aunt shared with me was the fact that her fried is watched every time she went to the rest room. I asked her why and she explained to me that the women in the factory do not get any brakes. They remain standing the whole eight to twelve hours that they are at work, so what the women would do, is ask to go to the rest room and would sit on the toilets even if they did not have to really use the restroom. That was the only way they could take their breaks.
