ETI shares plans for its response and calls on international buyers to engage and support suppliers and workers affected by the disaster.

ETI reflects on its efforts to protect workers' rights during the pandemic and responds to a recent study by the University of Aberdeen on the impact of unfair practices by global retailers on Bangladeshi suppliers.

We support the EU's commitment to implement a regulatory approach to human rights due diligence, demonstrating global leadership in this area. However, we call for the EU decision-makers to take a comprehensive due diligence approach that is risk-based.

ETI has joined forces with amfori, Fair Wear Foundation, Sustainable Apparel Coalition, Transformers Foundation, and manufacturer associations from the Sustainable Terms of Trade Initiative to advance effective mandatory human rights due diligence at the EU level.
