ISSP Webinar: Implementing Living Wages in Global Supply Chains with Social Accountability International

In supply chains extending around the world, men and women labor in low-wage jobs, making insufficient income to cover the cost of living. What can responsible businesses do to ensure that workers throughout the supply chain receive living wages? What are the implications of wage levels on the sustainability of communities around the world?

 

Join Matt Fischer-Daly, Senior Manager at Social Accountability International (SAI) for a discussion on how businesses can implement living wages in their global supply chains, and the role of certification standards such as SAI’s SA8000®. This webinar will feature two case studies, from Thailand and Honduras. As Senior Manager at SAI, Matt manages SAI’s development of the SA8000® standard and guidance, complaints management, and impact assessment. He also contributes to national and regional capacity-building programs to create enabling environments for labor rights. SAI has promoted workers’ right to a living wage since its founding and development of SA8000® in 1997.
