Living wages

We believe in the movement towards a Living Wage for all.

“A living wage should be earned in a standard work week (no more than 48 hours) by a worker and be sufficient to afford a decent standard of living for the worker and her or his family. Elements of a decent standard of living include food, housing, healthcare, clothing, transportation, energy and water. It also includes some money, which can be put aside for unexpected events.”

We are committed to cooperating with our suppliers, and multi-stakeholders to develop fairer working practices in the industry from the grassroots up. It will require governmental and industrial collaboration, as well as the individual brands actions to create a positive impact and achieve tangible results. We support the principles of ACT and agree a joint approach is necessary in order to achieve freedom of association, collective bargaining and a Living Wage for all.

Factory X Standard Supply Terms are an integral part of the buying agreement and were developed using the Ethical Trading Initiative Base Code as a guide protocol, and also references: local laws, the International Labour Organisation (ILO) Conventions and principles of the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

We have adopted the benchmarks set by the Anker Living Wage Methodology in order to establish the living wage in regions where our suppliers are located, actively working towards closing the gap between living and minimum wages. Supporting collective bargaining between employers and workers forms an integral part of the agreement on Living Wages with workers free to exercise their right to organize and bargain collectively, in accordance with ILO conventions.

Protection of workers’ wages are of paramount importance to the company, as it forms an integral part of our production policy and is written into our terms and conditions. To separate labour, fabric and accessories to identify the breakdown of cost, we include all direct and indirect labour cost components in costing calculations.

In doing so, we provide guidance to suppliers on labour costing for suppliers and reflect increases in negotiated wages in the labour components of costing calculations. We are in direct contact with our suppliers and manufactures and offer guidance on labour costing and reflect increases in negotiated wages in the labour components of our costing calculations.

2. Commits to fair terms of payments
3. Commits to better planning and forecasting
4. Commits to undertake training on responsible sourcing and buying
