Cambodia: Inditex response to Human Rights Now report

... Despite our limited ability to intervene (our purchases in this market are less than 2% of overall Inditex purchases), Inditex has always been very proactive in demanding the correct levels of Labour Rights and decent wages to the Cambodian textile sector. In this sense, we have offered our full assistance in this task to both the Cambodian union C.CAWDU and the international trade unions federation IndustriALL, as is customary practice under the scope of the procedures regulated by the Global Framework Agreement between IndustriALL and Inditex. ... Finally, we would like to mention the long-term commitment of Inditex, alongside other international apparel-makers, to establishing an adequate labor conflict resolution system in Cambodia. We believe that encouraging steps have been taken in this direction of late and that continued progress strongly depends on engaged dialogue and collaboration among all the vested parties, namely employers, trade unions, buyers and NGOs.
