BEIJING, July 31 (Xinhua) -- The Beijing Organizing Commitee of the Olympic Games (BOCOG) Tuesday announced that one licensee was found to use child labor and the another three violated labor law.

    BOCOG announced the investigation results on its official website that Le Kit Stationery Co. Ltd (Dongguan), was believed to have used child labor by employing eight students in the first months this year for packaging work, which was not related to Olympic products.

    The company also failed to sign labor contracts with some of its workers, BOCOG said. So BOCOG has decided to terminate Le Kit Stationery Co.'s right to manufacture and sell Olympic licensed products and revoked its licensing contract with the company.

    BOCOG said another three companies, Eagle Leather Products (Dongguan), Yue Wing Cheong Light Products (Shenzhen) and Mainland Headwear Holdings Ltd., (Shenzhen) had overtime issues, but no child labor issues were discovered. It has decided to suspend approval of all Olympic products designing of the three licensees, and requested they rectify their production and business operations in accordance with local labor bureau's requirements immediately.

    An NGO FairPlay 2008 released a report in June this year, alleging labor abuses in the four licensees, which drew BOCOG's immediate attention. BOCOG requested that the four companies provide detailed information and explanations on the situation.

    Relevant labor administrative departments at national and provincial levels responded quickly. Local municipal authorities in Dongguan and Shenzhen formed a special team to conduct comprehensive investigations from June 12th to 18th and delivered an extensive report on the issue. From the end of June till the beginning of July, investigation teams from Guangdong Labor and Social Security Bureau, the Ministry of Labor and Social Security and BOCOG further reviewed the results of the investigation reports and have now concluded the investigation.

    BOCOG reiterated on its website that it attaches great importance to working conditions and corporate social responsibility issues in licensees' companies. BOCOG will, in line with its licensing agreement, seriously deal with any licensees who have violated national labor laws and regulations.
