In order to meet our high standards in terms of working conditions and social responsibility, we have developed a binding code of conduct for cooperation with our producers and suppliers in the form of our "Code of Conduct". Through regular audits at the production facilities we work with, we also ensure that social working conditions are constantly improving, that our Code of Conduct and the statutory regulations on occupational safety are complied with and that employees can rely on a safe working environment.
PARTNER FOR 13 YEARS
Since 2011, we have been the only German fashion discounter to be a member of the Fair Wear Foundation (FWF), a non-profit organization that is committed to improving working conditions in the clothing, textile and shoe industry. As an independent NGO, we have internal processes critically reviewed by the FWF and report on them publicly. A central component of our membership is the implementation of social audits, training and education as well as the establishment of a complaints management system that enables factory workers to report grievances. All of our measures and progress are listed in detail in the Brand Performance Check published annually on the FWF website. The last Brand Performance Check (BPC) was carried out in 2022 and we have repeatedly achieved "Good" status. Here you can find the Brand Performance Checks, which the Fair Wear Foundation uses to regularly review and evaluate our efforts to improve working conditions in production countries. You can also find out more about our partnership with the Fair Wear Foundation in our Sustainability Report.
