A team of Reuters reporters on Monday won a George Polk Award for reports that revealed the widespread use of child labor among suppliers to Hyundai Motor Co in the U.S. state of Alabama.
The series of stories, "Undocumented and Underage," has prompted at least 10 probes by U.S. and Alabama authorities into suppliers of Hyundai and sister brand Kia. The reporting was carried out over more than a year by journalists Joshua Schneyer, Mica Rosenberg, Kristina Cooke and colleagues.
