What factors necessary for cost to be considered a true harm


Problem: Colortrue Paint Company has opened a manufacturing plant in a developing country in Africa because the low cost of labor and limited regulations in that country will cut its paint production costs by 50%. The paint manufacturing process exposes workers to several hazards due to chemical exposure, some of which can lead to premature death. In the United States, various safety precautions are required to operate paint manufacturing plants and these precautions are quite costly. Instead of using these precautions at its new plant, Colortrue is instead providing clear written warnings to its workers that they will be exposed to harmful chemicals. List the six factors that Henry Shue identifies as being necessary for a cost to be considered a true harm and indicate whether they are present at Colortrue's new paint manufacturing plant in Africa.
