Let's assume wages are sufficient, the prices that we pay for products are apparently still too low to ensure humane working conditions. And frankly, if a government would ensure humane working conditions wages would have to rise because production for local consumption would be subject to the same laws, raising costs of production.

To ensure the safety of its citizens, it is a government's responsibility to strive to prevent work from being unnecessarily risky. It would be good if this could be orchestrated at a higher level than a national one, otherwise companies will enter a race to the bottom by moving their factories to the least regulated locations.
