Lishen, BAK and Other Battery Firms Criticized for Insufficient Cobalt Supply Chain Due Diligence
Amnesty International's cobalt supply chain report rated Tianjin Lishen as taking only minimal action and Shenzhen BAK as taking no action, citing insufficient risk identification and disclosure. Tianjin Lishen objected to some of the ratings; the assessment does not amount to a finding that the companies directly used child labor. Status: NGO investigation and company objection. Entities involved: Tianjin Lishen, Shenzhen BAK Battery.
