Workers backed by their unions ➕ An independent monitoring system ➕ Employer buy-in & accountability 🟰 A pathway to #endGBVH The #Lesotho agreements provide a powerful model for implementation of #C190 principles & ways to address #GBVH. #16Days

Good to see this finally happening - too many companies continue to hide behind social audits to make the case that they can meet their human rights obligations *and* operate in an environment of state-sponsored forced labor. wsr-network.org/no-bar-too-l…
