What are factory conditions like where wobabybasics’ products are manufactured?
We use factories in China which are all safe, clean, ventilated, well lit, healthy work environments. We assess the health, safety and quality of working conditions of factories before establishing a working relationship. Our Workplace Code of Conduct specifies international labour standards related to health and safety, non-discrimination, freedom of association, child or forced labour, wages and overtime as well as environmental responsibility. Our knitwear are lovingly handknitted by a women’s cooperative in Northeast China under the direction of the Catalyst Foundation, a U.K. non-profit organization which creates work opportunities for women in need. The women work in self-managed groups and make decisions as a democracy. This fair trade production method creates self-esteem and strengthens communities.
