Description | The Fair Labor Association developed the Enable Training Toolkit to prepare sustainability managers, master trainers, and field-level practitioners to apply components of the USDA Guidelines for Eliminating Child Labor and Forced Labor in Agricultural Supply Chains in the context of their own organizations. It aids in the understanding of implementing a human rights due diligence programme. The Enable Toolkit contains six training modules, a facilitator's guide, presentation slides, and a participant manual. The toolkit provides guidance to companies and suppliers who are interested in adopting the USDA Guidelines or similar responsible sourcing frameworks, and supports fulfilment of emerging regulatory requirements on supply chain mapping and the abolition of child labour issues in supply chains.

Name of Resource | Ethical Trading Initiative Base Code |
Type | Policy |
Country / jurisdiction | United Kingdom |
Organization | Ethical Trading Initiative |
Date of publishing | 2018 |
Description | The Ethical Trading Initiative (ETI) has developed a code of labour practice - the 'Base Code' - reflecting the most relevant international standards with respect to labour practices which will be used as the basis of its work. ETI member companies are expected to adopt the Base Code, or to adopt their own code so long as it incorporates the Base Code. The Base Code which is accompanied by a set of general principles concerning implementation provides a foundation for the ETI's philosophy of learning. Member companies must require that suppliers meet agreed standards within a reasonable timeframe, and that performance in this regard is measured, transparent and, ultimately, a precondition to further business. |
