This report isn't an 'ethical shopping guide'. The way to help workers is not to boycott one company in favour of another, it's to shift from being a passive consumer to an active one. Each time you buy clothes, get in touch with the company you bought them from, ask them what they are doing about the recommendations in this report. Together, we can - and we will - clean up fashion. |

Responded to survey: yes, twice MSI involvement: no Wages Grade 2: Acknowledges that minimum and industry benchmark wages are not sufficient standards, but no real efforts to apply living wage. FoA Grade 2: Acknowledges that access to FoA and CB requires worker and management training, but no real efforts to ensure workers have access. M&V Grade 1: Suppliers regularly audited and remediation measures taken, in line with basic industry norms only. Download John Lewis' submission |
