Sweatshop Free Campaign Sheffield
We are calling on the University of Sheffield to become an affiliate of Electronics Watch and help end sweatshop labour in the sourcing and manufacturing of electronics.
Why is this important?
Electronics Watch is 'an independent monitoring organisation that assists public sector buyers to meet their responsibility to protect the labour rights of workers in their global electronics supply chains more effectively and less expensively than any single public sector buyer could accomplish on its own'. People & Planet Sheffield believe that the electronic equipment that we all make use of in university and around the world should be sourced and manufactured without the use of slave labour and sweatshops and affiliating to Electronics Watch gives the University of Sheffield a great chance of being a leader in this change.
