Migrant labour in the textile and garment industry
SOMO’s new fact sheet focuses on migrant labour in the textile and garment industry. It offers buying companies a set of recommendations to minimise the risk of exploiting migrant workers in their supply chain and to ensure that production is taking place under decent working conditions. The fact sheet is the sixth in a series about labour conditions in the textiles and garments industry and is made for the WellMade project.
