The Fat Face Brand is about getting out there, being active, and making the most of life. Therefore in the arena of ethical trading, we want to be real, understand what the issues are in the supply base, and do something to make things better for the workers who make our clothes. We want to ensure that the workers are treated fairly and are better off after contact with Fat Face than they were before.
Since the company started in 1988, we have been working closely with our suppliers, and aim to ensure all factory workers are treated fairly. To this end, we issued a Code of Conduct, based on the Ethical Trading Initiative Base Code, and every factory must be able to demonstrate compliance to this when requested. This code covers areas such as child labour, discrimination, working hours, discipline practices, freedom of association and health and safety.
However, we want to do more than this. To make a real difference, we are embarking on major projects, in partnership with key suppliers and other organisations, to deliver real and sustainable improvements to the lives of these people. As this evolves, we will share this information with you on this website.
