Brands and buyers alike are demanding transparency in supply chains. As the fashion industry works toward sustainability there are still remaining issues in the supply chain that organisations must address. The fashion industry supply chain can have issues with forced labour, harassment issues, and health and safety hazards. Production can also affect the environment through energy usage, wastewater, emissions to air, and more.

In this episode of Total Sustainability in Progress, Supply Chain Assurance Senior Director, Catherine Beare discusses ethical supply chains in the fashion industry. Discover how big brands are working to understand the problem and what steps they are taking to improve workplace conditions and ensure a more sustainable supply chain.
