"When issues occur, we highlight these to the Suppliers and work with them to help resolve any non-conformance in a timely manner.Though monitoring may highlight the issues occurring at a factory level we acknowledge that in order to solve such issues we need to identify and address the root causes behind them. Being a member of the ETI gives Whistles the opportunity to collaborate and work with other brands, organisations, NGOs and Trade Unions to identify and address the root causes that lead to problems at factories."
