“We work towards a safe and healthy working environment for everyone who touches our products“

We want everyone who is part of our supply chain to work in a safe and healthy environment. At our suppliers, we want to see that the building is safe and that there are measures in place to prevent work related accidents, injuries or illness. In some of the countries where our clothes are produced, risks exist in relation to healthy and safe working conditions in garment factories. We monitor the health and safety requirements at the factories via audits and support our suppliers on their improvement plans.

All our brands that produce in Bangladesh are signatories of the 2021 International Accord, where we
collaborate with the industry and trade unions to prevent and mitigate health & safety risks in
factories in Bangladesh. The International Accord commenced on the 1 st of September 2021. This
accord builds on the first Bangladesh Accord in 2013, and the Transition Accord of 2018.
The International Accord is a 26-month legally-binding agreement between garment brands,
retailers, and trade unions, to help Ready-Made Garment factories become safe – and stay safe – for
millions of workers. The brands and retailers that signed the Accord commit to continue the
collective workplace safety program in Bangladesh by supporting the RMG Sustainability Council
(RSC) and to expand their safety programs to other countries based on the principles and standards
of the previous fire and building safety Accords of 2013 and 2018.
