India: Labour groups & H&M call for brands to sign the Dindigul Agreement to Eliminate Gender-Based Violence and Harassment

"H&M Group urges collaborative action on gender-based violence", 24 May 2022

The Tamil Nadu Textile and Common Labour Union (TTCU), the Asia Floor Wage Alliance (AFWA), and Global Labor Justice-International Labor Rights Forum (GLJ-ILRF) are calling on global brands to join H&M Group in signing the Dindigul Agreement to Eliminate Gender-Based Violence and Harassment (GBVH).
