The company said it had "fully implemented a Zero Recruitment Fee Policy" since the beginning of the year, under which all recruiting fees for "newly hired migrant workers" are paid for by Giant.

Giant has established "internal supervision mechanisms and third-party audits," it said, and will contact CBP to "seek the revocation of the WRO and explain that the company has already adopted appropriate measures."
