Most suppliers already have grievance channels, yet many go unused. So what makes a grievance mechanism work for the people it is meant to serve?
Join AIM-Progress, Oxfam and the Ethical Trading Initiative (ETI) as we share the learnings drawn nine projects with brands and suppliers, and provide practical guidance on a worker-led approach to grievance mechanisms.
Programme
- Welcome and background to the initiatives
- The business perspective: why effective grievance mechanisms matter
- Why workers don’t speak up: the barriers behind the numbers
- Practical lessons: worker participation, the role of buyers and monitoring what matters
- From a mechanism to an ecosystem: shared responsibility for access to remedy
- Discussion and Q&A
Presenters include Monica Romis, Sara Petersson (ETI), Caroline Brodeur (Oxfam) and Yael Fattal Lariccia (AIM-Progress).
Time/Date: Wednesday, November 4, 15:00 PM CET (14:00 GMT) for 1 hour
The learning paper will be made available on the AIM-Progress website after the webinar. For a taster of the paper’s key themes, read the blog. by Sara Petersson and Monica Romis.
