Value for global brands and retailers
Better Work helps global brands and retailers in the garment industry meet a number of distinct challenges in managing their supply chains. We help to mitigate risk and remedy poor working conditions by supporting suppliers to improve adherence to labour standards and laws; we help provide greater transparency on compliance; and we support the development of stable and well managed sourcing environments.
Since 2007 Better Work has been working with more than 100 well-known global brands to support a thriving, competitive garment industry with decent working conditions. In collaboration with suppliers, factories, trade unions and governments we have created lasting, positive change through capacity-building, assessments, training and research focused on changing attitudes and behaviour.
Why work with Better Work
Responsible global brands and retailers are critical to the success of Better Work. Through their concern for customers’ values and preferences for ethically sourced fashion, they help drive improvements in factories and support Better Work in strengthening the competitiveness of the garment sector.
In turn, Better Work offers global brands access to unparalleled industry insights and expertise, which helps build sustainability into supply chains. Better Work brands benefit from cost savings, enhanced reputation and risk management, and a safe venue for collaborating with other global brands to create stable sourcing environments.
When brands and retailers join Better Work, they are making a positive decision for their staff, shareholders, customers and workers in their supply chain.
