Why is there a need to reconcile? Worker’s rights trump ROI. If you can’t run a profitable company without discriminating against and exploiting your workers, you shouldn’t run a company at all.

Also, look towards more socialist countries (e.g. Germany), for practical strategies to keep making money while at the same time ensuring people don’t get exploited. Hint: empowering workers, letting them unionize and collectively bargain, treating them as humans rather than “Human Resources”, will not actually significantly decrease your ROI.
