The Contract Supplier Working Group is
committed to holding companies accountable for the labor,
social and environmental conditions under which their products
and services are produced or provided. This means that a company
takes responsibility for all those whom it employs, directly
or indirectly, through contract suppliers, vendors, licensees
and sub-contractors. Companies need to take concrete actions
to influence their vendors, suppliers and factory management
to respect the dignity of the workers, pay a sustainable living
wage and create a safe and healthy workplace where labor rights
are respected.
Mission Statement
We believe justice requires that companies
respect the rights of workers and the dignity of each person.
We commit to pressing corporations to use their economic power
to enforce their codes of conduct to ensure that their suppliers
meet basic human and labor rights standards and that the lives
of workers continuously improve. We believe workers and communities
must be included in the benefits of the global economy.
