A class action lawsuit has been filed against South Korean car giant Hyundai and its US subsidiary in California seeking to stop and prevent the future use of child labour in its operations.

The lawsuit follows reports from various news outlets that underage workers, in some cases as young as 11 years old, have recently worked at Hyundai’s plant in Montgomery, Alabama.
