H&M does not own any factories and hence, do not pay the textile workers wages. Nevertheless, H&M [are] positive to and welcome wage increases to textile workers in our suppliers’ factories. That is also why we work in partnership with other brands and lobby at a political level for the minimum wage to be high enough for people to live on...We invest significant resources and work actively to help improve conditions long-term for the textile workers in our purchasing countries...[W]e believe that people should be able to live off their wage, and our Code of Conduct has the same level of ambition when it comes to the wage issue as other companies’ codes of conduct: that a statutory minimum wage is the basic requirement, with the aim that this wage shall be possible to live on.
