Summary:

The DFID Vulnerable Supply Chains Facility has partnered with expert organizations and leading UK businesses to improve working conditions and access to healthcare and health information for workers in Bangladesh and other key supplier countries. This will help make workplaces safer, meaning employees can return to work and supply chains can keep moving and become more resilient. To this extent, the Ethical Trading Initiative (ETI) has partnered with 7 corporate members – Primark, New Look, M&S, Tesco, Sainsbury’s, Dimensions and Arco – to quickly and effectively address the risks related to a safe return to work following the COVID-19 pandemic in Bangladesh. The project will start its activities at the end of August 2020 and run until July 31st, 2021.
