Participating Companies (PCs) commit to implement FLA Standards in factories throughout their supply chains. Reports on the following companies seek to provide the reader with information about their efforts to comply with FLA requirements.
The Participating Companies included in the FLA's Year Two Report are:
It is important to note that these reports are descriptive in character during companies' "initial implementation period," which is the period of two or three years when a company develops its labor compliance program. At the end of that period, the FLA Board decides whether the program is in compliance with FLA requirements. If so, the program receives FLA accreditation. As of the end of Year Two, only Reebok footwear's compliance program was eligible for FLA accreditation. When applying to the FLA, Reebok footwear opted for a two-year initial implementation period. Therefore, an evaluative report on Reebok footwear's labor compliance program is included here.
FLA Participating Companies are required to comply with the following requirements throughout their supply chains:
- Adopting and communicating the Workplace Code to workers and management at applicable facilities
- Training internal compliance staff to monitor and remediate noncompliance issues
