Ethical trade during Coronavirus

As the Coronavirus pandemic continues to unfold, disrupting supply chains and impacting workers on an unprecedented global scale, we have adjusted our operations to optimise support for the forward-thinking companies, trade unions, and NGOs that make up our members.

ETI is committed to decisive and collaborative action to drive responsible business practices and to support our members to protect workers both during the Pandemic and throughout the recovery period. We are bringing key stakeholders and influencers together, and developing and sharing best practice which will support our members to build more resilient future supply chains which place workers' voices, and human rights, at their heart.
