A Dangerous Business

NEW DOCS

Iron Workers risk their lives to produce a profit for McWane, Inc. Frontline, CBC, and The New York Times team up for this exposé about this iron foundry company. Worker safety, the environment, even government regulations are callously overlooked in the pursuit of profit. When the local communities learn about the company’s reputation for abusing workers, the company turns to another source of human capital. A riveting, mouth-dropping story about the corporate practices of McWane, Inc.  MV
