In addition to our commitment to uphold the Workplace Code of Conduct standards, we have also made a commitment to engage with civil society to learn about local labor issues or trends and work together to design and implement trainings, worker communication channels, and factory specific remediation plans.
We have worked with various civil society organizations (CSOs) throughout the years and will continue to seek out additional engagement opportunities in the future.
Currently, we participate in working groups or engage with the following organizations:
LIFE Center
A social, non-profit organization, pioneering in the field of HIV prevention, protection of reproductive health, sexual health, and capacity building of individuals and organizations in vulnerable communities. We have worked with LIFE on health education and financial empowerment projects in Vietnam.
The Centre for Child Rights and Business
Supports companies in child rights, ESG, and human rights due diligence to deliver improvements within their supply chains and yield positive business outcomes. Their mission is to promote supply chain transparency, improve corporate practices for businesses, and improve the lives of children and families by working with companies to strengthen children’s rights.
Besides serving on the Child Rights In Business working group organized by the Centre, Colosseum has collaborated with this organization on several projects supporting migrant working parents and their families in both China and Vietnam.
