Our Members
We have three types of members – companies, trade union organisations and non-governmental organisations – all of whom are actively involved in all levels of our work. The variety of members, and the unparalleled breadth of experience they bring, mean that we are uniquely qualified to define good practice in the implementation of labour codes.
- Our corporate members include both retailers
and suppliers who source and/or sell food, clothing and other products
in UK markets. They have a combined annual turnover of over £100
billion and include many names familiar in the UK high street.
- Our trade union members are umbrella organisations
which co-ordinate the work of their affiliates. Together they represent
more than 157 million workers worldwide in every country where free trade
unions can operate.
- Our NGO members include large and small development and human rights organisations operating in the UK. They have knowledge and expertise on workers’ rights, human rights and social development issues in Asia, Africa, Central America and Europe. They work with many local organisations, including labour groups, in all these regions and are committed to ensuring that key stakeholders in the South have a voice in both developing and monitoring labour codes.
