MALAYSIA

The electric appliance maker Dyson said on Thursday it is dropping a Malaysian supplier following an audit of its labour practices, the latest company in the country to face such concerns. Malaysia is home to millions of low-paid migrants who mainly work in manufacturing, agriculture and construction, but allegations have been mounting about mistreatment. The latest company to come under scrutiny is ATA IMS, a supplier to British inventor James Dyson’s company, famous for its bagless vacuum cleaners.
