International Accord Signatory
About the data
The International Accord is a legally binding agreement between global brands and trade unions to improve health and safety in garment factories. It grew out of the Bangladesh Accord, which was established after the 2013 Rana Plaza disaster to address factory safety through independent inspections and enforceable commitments. The International Accord expands this model to multiple countries through national programs and oversight mechanisms.
