Country risk analyses Clause Samples

Country risk analyses. ‌ As mentioned before, our production is mainly done in China, India and Pakistan. Together they represent more than 95 % of our production. Our first focus is on these countries. We also produce a small share in Indonesia (1.2 % buying volume). Due to capacity reasons we won’t discuss Indonesia any further in this analysis as we have decided to concentrate on the main production countries. Our main regions per country are: China : Guandong & Zhejiang India : Tamil nadu Pakistan : Sindh Below a description of the main risks we have discovered per country / region. For the analyses we have made use of country reports from Fairwear, Cleanclothing, Pakistan buyers forum, MVO risk check, ILO. We also attended several workshops by Modint / SER. Finally, we have participated in a pilot where we have shared our risk analyses with several parties, the SER, two NGO’, Modint and other fashion brands. They have given us feed-back and helped with prioritizing the risks. Our risk analyses are based on the severity of the risk, the likeliness that it happens in our supply chain and the amount of people affected.

To our surprise this does not arise from our audit results where the majority of our suppliers have a score “A” on this matter. Allowing workers to establish a collective or association is considered a very important tool to make them aware of their rights and give them more influence. In the end this will result in better working conditions. Contributing to the creation of freedom of association at our suppliers is considered one of our top priorities in China. 2. Overtime/wage management → Both from country reports as well as from our audit results it is clear that too many over-hours are made in China, it is a well-known problem grounded in the Chinese culture (see 5.3 supplier analyses). One of the main reasons why many Chinese workers seem to make many over-hours is because the minimum wage is often too little to raise a whole family. As such the matter of living wage and over-h...
