@szzhou4@LSEforBusiness Thanks for the publication! I'm curious about your comment on whether the COS position should be exclusive to CEOs or if other senior executives should also consider it for themselves.
Four members of the richest family of Britain, Prakash Hinduja, his wife Kamal Hinduja, their son Ajay Hinduja and his wife Namrata Hinduja have all been sentenced to jail by a Swiss court for exploiting Indian migrant servants whom they made to work for upto 18 hours a day for less than Rs 700 (£7) per day.
The hourly rate in Switzerland is 32chf which is Rs 2800 (£28).
They paid them in Indian rupees rather than the local currency. Confiscated their passports and didn't allow them to go out. They spent more money in looking after their dogs than paying a decent salary to their servants.
Prakash Hinduja and his wife are in their mid to late 70's. This age is for retiring and moving towards spirituality and not going to jail on serious charges like human trafficking. They have both received 4.5 yrs jail term while the son Ajay and his wife Namrata have got 4 yrs each.
This is how the justice system works in developed country, even though the family did an out of court settlement with the servants in the civil court, criminal charges were still brought against them and they were tried in the court and punished. It doesn't matter how rich or influential one is, law is equal for all.
They probably spent a lot of wealth fighting this case that took away a lot more than money from them. All they needed to do was to treat and pay those working for them, cooking for them and looking after their children, right. Karma always catches up.

Hahaha - I don’t fully remember why I joined Twitter (X) on Valentine’s Day 14 years ago! But I am sure that I have the same opinion about this day still today 😎😂 as CB said, “If you have the capability, first love yourself.”
Analysts predict that by 2027, GLP-1s for diabetes and obesity will account for c.90% of Novo Nordisk's revenue. So, should the company consider selling its insulin business? 🧐
When pharmaceuticals are sold at prices lower than chewing gum, it leads to expected consequences. It would be valuable to calculate the loss of welfare caused by these shortages to show the actual consequences.
Our latest data on medicines shortages in the @guardian this morning: the trend over the last few years is clear, with close to double the number of shortages compared to January 2022: https://t.co/2mlQ3hUQ7R
