Page 1 of 3 New LookNew Look has been in the ETI since 1998, but gives the impression that it has only started seriously engaging in the last few years: it proudly told us that “we have just received feedback from the ETI on our annual report to them, and their Director Dan Rees commented that New Look was ‘the most improved company’ last year.” It certainly seems one of the companies most open to our concerns. Responded to survey: yes MSI involvement: yes, Ethical Trading Initiative Wages Grade 3: Can offer concrete examples of steps to develop and implement a living wage methodology in supplier base, but only in a few pilot projects.
