工资调查与改善计划（WRIP）（一） ? 在中国，许多品牌公司的协作工厂支付工人的工资低于法律标准，工作时间则超过法定时限（延长工作时间每月不得超过三十六小时），同时也超过多数品牌公司采购准则所规定的时限（每周工作时间不得超过60小时）。各品牌公司为解决此类违规问题，主要对工厂进行定期评审或是委托第三方评审，然后要求工厂采取有效的措施进行整改。若工厂的整改措施未能达到法规标准和品牌公司采购准则要求，品牌公司将暂停工厂订单，甚至终止与工厂合作。 ? In response to this common method of detecting non-compliance issues and pushing factories for corrective action,the majority of factories have created fraudulent records that show compliance to either the local law or a companys code of conduct.Further,to avoid detection of these fraudulent records,factories have coached their workers on how to answer questions posed by company monitors as well as modifying any/all factory records/documents that might prove the time card and payroll records were falsified. ? 为应付各品牌公司此类工厂评审，大多数工厂会制作虚假记录，以证明他们是符合劳动法规和品牌公司采购准则要求的。而且，工厂训导工人回答品牌公司采购准则评审时所提出的各种问题，以使工人反馈给品牌公司的信息与工厂制作的虚假记录相一致，以此来掩盖工厂真实的工时与工资状况。 ? The efforts on behalf of factories to hide the true wages and working hours have made it extremely difficult to assess compliance and to monitor progress against local law and/or a company code of conduct. In other words,most companies are not able to determine the actual wages and work hours for their factories in China. ? 这种蓄意掩盖真实工时和工资的做法给采购准则评审带来相当大的困难。换句话说，大部分品牌公司无法监测到他们在中国的协作工厂的真实工资和工作时间状况。 ???????? WRIP Program ? To address this industry-wide challenge,Sears Holdings Corporation developed the Wage Research and Improvement Program(WRIP) to work with venders and factories in China to evaluate the true working hours and wages under the goal of continuous improvement.The WRIP program,formally launched in 2004,attempts to partner with select vendors to gather more accurate wage and hour information for their factories so that we may work with them to develop detailed corrective action plans that have a higher likelihood for implementation and ongoing success. ? 工资调查与改善计划 ? 为应对这种普遍的业界挑战，Sears Holdings Corporation公司与供应商及协作工厂合作，开展工资调查与改善计划（WRIP)（以下简称WRIP改善计划）。公司按照持续改进的原则，来评审其在中国的协作工厂的真实工时和工资状况。WRIP改善计划在2004年正式
