A Possible Solution

A solution to the outsourcing issue seems impossible at times. With so many different stakeholders with different perspectives to please, inventing a resolution that would benefit all parties would be impossible. The main issue of outsourcing is money with some stakeholders not receiving enough while others capitalize their profits by exploiting these stakeholders. Although it seems unlikely Nike CEO would be willing to lose profit, we’ve established a compromise in which all parties are considered.

1. Establish a sort of outsourcing tax. If companies choose to outsource their jobs, they must pay a tax because they are stealing American jobs. The tax would still be less than hiring American workers.

2. Some of the money from the tax would go directly to the third world workers, giving them a higher salary and more livable wages. This would be monitored by the World Bank.

3. Foreign Labor unions for outsourcing would be established through the company and the World Bank to stop abuse and exploitation of low-skill workers.

4. If companies refuse to agree to this, consumers could ban together and decide to boycott Nike products for refusing to adhere to reasonable regulations to protect workers and human rights.
