to #endchildlabour, make sure their parents - including homeworkers - are paid a living wage, and have access to #socialprotection .. #humanrightsduediligence needs to extend to informal supply chains

Access to #socialprotection across the lifecycle – from child & unemployment benefits to pensions and health protection – help reduce child labour. bit.ly/WDACL-12June #EndChildLabour

Home-based workers continue to be 1 of the most affected even among informal workers due to #Covid-19, as per @WIEGOGLOBAL. Our story on how women-based workers weathered the pandemic and why they need govt support: indiaspend.com/womenwork/indi…

The war in #Ukraine is exacerbating inequalities. It has increased the care burden on women & impacted their economic opportunities. 60% of #informal workers are #women. They are extremely vulnerable right now ⬇️ @Streetnet1 @WIEGOGLOBAL @MaciGiulia shar.es/afa61B

Two years ago - crisis was engulfing the world. Lockdowns were on the horizon as we dealt with Covid-19. For workers in the fast fashion industry supplying the UK market, this meant cancelled orders and destitution.

Lockdowns were on the horizon as we dealt with Covid-19. For workers in the fast fashion industry supplying the UK market, this meant cancelled orders and destitution.

We support the campaign by garment workers in Cambodia demanding their legally owed compensation after their Ramatex Factory closed in 2020. Workers are owed $1.4 million in unpaid wages from brands such as Matalan. #payyourworkers Read @labourlabel blog: labourbehindthelabel.org/matalan-is-rob…


Last year, we helped run an Occupational Health & Safety Workshop with @traidcraftexch and @Cividep for leather homeworkers in Ambur. Hear the findings and why health & poor working conditions are among many issues rising from ineffective due-diligence. cividep.org/occupational-h…
