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. ciw-online.org/blog/2025/03/…

The experience of dairy workers in the #MilkWithDignity program is entirely different than the world outside the program who routinely experience "poor wages, unsafe working conditions, inadequate housing, & discrimination." This is the difference that WSR makes.
“Out of over 200 migrant dairy workers surveyed in Vermont this year, 77% say they have suffered an accident or injury at work and 87% make lower than the minimum wage" @wcax wcax.com/2024/10/16/dairy-wo…

The contrast between conditions in the #MilkWithDignity program and on farms outside the program is stark. This is the difference that WSR programs make for workers.
"A survey conducted by Migrant Justice academic researchers showed that, bc VT does not protect the right of farm workers to earn a minimum wage, 87% of the workers surveyed were not making minimum wage, and over a quarter were making less than $10/hr" vtcng.com/news_and_citizen/n…

Worker-to-worker education is at the heart of building a worker-driven program. Here's what that looked like when workers with @WeCount_Fl visited our member @MigrantJustice this summer. wsr-network.org/worker-to-wo…

It's great to see that Levi's finally signed the International Accord for Pakistan to ensure workers can be safe in their factories. Hopefully, the brand will also soon protect its workers in Bangladesh. sourcingjournal.com/denim/de…

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. wsr-network.org/levis-signs-…
