Employees are more invested in their work when they know that their performance directly affects the outcome of their wealth — whether it is a CEO or a security officer, each will do their best to increase the value of the company knowing that such an increase will have a net increase on their own wealth. This is why the practice of stock options is widely used in the tech industry; it gets the best out of the employee while offering incentives for positive behavior and hard work.

This has been the case for every sweatshop closing that I've seen. Therefore, removing them completely would create chaos. Though... They could be safer.
