3.1 Tier One Factory Disclosure
About the data
Disclosing first tier supplier lists is a crucial step towards transparency for major fashion brands. It can help facilitate the identification and escalation of labour rights and environmental issues by trade unions, NGOs and other stakeholders directly to brands enabling them to take urgent actions to address and remediate issues raised.
A note on the scoring system
WikiRate has a standardised 10-point scoring system making it possible to compare company scores across different benchmarks. On WikiRate.org, the Fashion Transparency Index scoring system, where each company can get a maximum of 250 points, has been converted to the 10-point scoring system - with 10 being the highest a company can score and 0 being the lowest. These company scores can also be translated to percentages e.g. if a company has scored 2.5 out of 10 on WikiRate, they have achieved 25% of the 250 points in the Fashion Transparency Index.
