Labor and human rights groups in India are bringing a Fair Food Program-style model to the sugar industry, hoping to push big brands to sign binding legal agreements to protect workers and adopt humane standards. https://t.co/AeZoFQrjbE

Peter Buffett, Co-President, @NoVoFoundation: “The importance of this pivotal moment cannot be overstated. CIW’s transformative model has proven its power to transform the lives of hundreds of thousands of workers in the U.S. and abroad..."

After years of global campaigning, Levi's signed Pakistan @SafetyAccord.
It's a growing consensus: binding, enforceable agreements backed by worker education & organizing w/ independent enforcement mechanisms are the best way to protect people at work.

@ElliottForWard1 @aishaforward10 @JChavezMpls BDC director Doug Mork & CTUL director Merle Payne explain how this program will work, with workers having a space to share what they are facing to make changes. Merle shared praise for the 2 non-profit developers showing leadership & called on for-profit developers to step up!

🚨Breaking🚨CTUL workers have campaigned to end abuses in non-union construction for years, and today are announcing the historic news that two Twin Cities affordable housing developers (@Hope_MN and @AllianceHsg) have becoming the first to join @BDC_Standards! 🧵

As hurricane Milton hits Florida, @ciw tells @democracynow how their radio station informs the community & how @FairFoodProgram has improved conditions, saving lives during storms.
This is why organized workers are a critical part of our climate response.

“While the @FairFoodProgram is great for workers, it’s good for employers and retail brands, too. That’s because it has tackled longstanding human rights violations such as forced labor, child labor, physical violence and sexual assault.”

[Migrant Justice @MigrantJustice]

"The bottom line: Food retailers, which could require their suppliers to join programs like the @FairFoodProgram or #MilkWithDignity, are key to ending widespread forced labor." - @axios

“Farmworkers cannot wait years for the right to safe working conditions. Action must be taken by civil society and the private sector.”
