2023 Forum on Due Diligence in the Garment and Footwear Sector

Making Human Rights Due Diligence work for Homeworkers

Feb 14, 2023 | 9:00 AM - 10:00 AM

Virtual 2

Description

by Homeworkers Worldwide This session will contribute to the wider debate around how to extend due diligence beyond tier one factories, to increase visibility along supply chains, including subcontractors and homeworkers. We will begin with 2021 research on homeworkers’ contribution to, and working conditions within, global supply chains, before exploring different responses from brands and civil society. Our panel discussion will outline best practices adopted by leading brands and MSIs alongside concrete proposals that civil society actors can offer, to support all brands to increase transparency and ensure that due diligence processes reach workers right along their supply chains.
