I didn't thoroughly look through the site but I believe it refers to bad/unsafe working conditions in places where coke is made. Sadly, this is not uncommon in sweat shops and factories overseas. If anything, instead of targetting coke specifically (which could help to an extent), people should work on getting the country as a whole to enforce regulations on workplace conditions...
Well...then again, there are a number of countries who have laws that say working conditions should be safer but nobody follows them.
There are lots of organizations devoted to helping people in sweatshops and stuff and I'm sure a search on google would uncover a number of these. Perhaps they could better guide you in matters such as these....but I wouldn't always trust random sites like the one you posted. I simply don't know the validity of everything they are saying.
As a side note, while sweatshops can be horrible and a lot of them really should get their act together and improve working conditions/benefits...to a lot of people/towns, sweatshops are life savers. Without companies moving factories into these towns, a lot of people would simply have no jobs and therefore no way to provide for their families. So...while these jobs leave a lot to be desired...it's better than starving. Forcing these companies to move their factories elsewhere would only leave a bunch of former workers jobless and starving.
