Labor practices


In 2022 a boycott of Paris Baguette took off after a worker at a Pyeongtaek factory was fatally crushed by a sauce mixing machine. Shortly before the incident another worker at the factory had sustained an injury to their hand from a production machine but was not sent to the hospital since they were not a full-time worker. Various South Korean trade unions have condemned the company due to a history of safety issues and union busting.
