Whose Responsibility? Decent Work and Multinational Supply Chains

What? Workers in global food and clothing supply chains face some of the most exploitative conditions of work. And yet, supermarkets, retail chains, amongst others are making greater and greater profits. Are they, and can they, be made accountable for the denial of decent work to their workers? Come and hear testimonies from grassroots workers and join in the debate with experts from the EU institutions, NGOs, trade unions and progressive business on what steps the EU can take to ensure that companies are held accountable to decent working and how those facing abuses can access their rights. Read the agenda.

Hosted by Richard Howitt MEP and Pervenche Berès MEP
