Code of Conduct for Uzbekistan
|
 |
|
|
|
For all C&A suppliers the C&A Code of Conduct is binding. It strictly states that child labour is unacceptable for C&A.
Already in Dezember 2007 C&A obliged all of its global suppliers in written form not to use cotton fibre from Uzbekistan in the manufacturing of C&A products.
Furthermore, C&A has requested all suppliers worldwide to clearly state the origin for cotton fibre which is used within any C&A merchandise.

C&A statement on Mulesing
|
|
|
|
|
C&A fervently opposes the practice of mulesing applied on Australian sheep.
For C&A the current situation is not tolerable and alternative methods as previously advised by the Australian Wool Industry are urgently needed.
As C&A does not see any significant progress, we get the impression, that the Australian Wool Industry is not in a position to meet the deadline to eliminate this practice until 2010 .
We have already been investigating alternative sources for non-mulesed wool and we will be directing our buying in the future towards these sources.
