[PDF] Let's Clean Up Fashion 2008

… This is the third time that Labour Behind the Label has surveyed the state of pay behind the British fashion scene, and in three years we have seen definite progress, not only in rhetoric but in the beginnings of tangible work on the ground. The establishment of a multi-stakeholder working group at the Ethical Trading Initiative is one clear milestone…But the pace is still glacial…No brand or retailer is paying its workers a living wage, or has even put in place a systematic approach to do so.
