Recherchetool für Materialien TOOLKIT: Finding hidden homeworkers in apparel & footwear supply chains The lack of visibility of homeworkers makes it difficult for international brands and retailers to address the problems of homeworkers within their own supply chains. Homeworkers, mainly women, are often employed in informal areas of clothing and footwear supply chains outside factories. Due to their precarious employment, which is not in the focus of auditors and inspectors, and the weak or lack of legal protection, they are at risk of exploitation and have the worst wages and working conditions of all workers in the value chain. This toolkit is designed to help companies improve transparency about homework within their supply chains. Scope: 24 pagesreference : online as PDF back
