Answer: True

Step-by-step explanation:

About the debate on third-world factories, Ian Maitland defended sweatshops as a more suitable way for workers to receive better wages.

Maitland states that paying wages over market levels is what might actually be considered ethically unacceptable, and the ethical thing to do is paying market wages. The logic behind this statement is that companies might relocate somewhere else if minimum wage standards apply.
