Social
We work towards the well-being and development of our employees by promoting good leadership, inclusion, and equal opportunities. Protecting human rights and ensuring good working conditions are our primary focus when it comes to social responsibility within our value chain.
Own workforce – engaged employees
We believe in engagement – both in nature and at the workplace. Engaged employees feel better and are a prerequisite for our future growth. Based on our materiality assessment, we focus on diversity and equality, employee well-being, and employee development. Our success is built on team spirit. We place great emphasis on celebrating both big and small victories and facing challenges together.
Workers in the value chain
Our impact on human rights and working conditions primarily occurs in the production stage, where we have direct agreements with manufacturing suppliers and indirect relationships with fabric and raw material suppliers. To ensure responsibility throughout the supply chain, we follow our Code of Conduct, which is based on the UN Declaration of Human Rights and the ILO Core Conventions. We are also members of Amfori BSCI, which provides independent audits and supports continuous improvement.
We prioritise transparency and collaboration with suppliers to ensure compliance with our standards, focusing on six key areas:
Working with suppliers committed to adhering to our Supplier Code of Conduct.
Maintaining visibility into the social conditions of our suppliers and collaborating only with third-party audited suppliers.
Supporting and encouraging suppliers with insufficient compliance to improve social conditions.
Supporting the establishment of effective grievance mechanisms for workers.
Monitoring the health and safety of Tier 2 suppliers.
Monitoring risks of child labour and forced labour in cotton production.
2023/24 actions and progress: RevolutionRace maintained stable supplier relationships, increased factory collaboration, and prioritized auditing. Ongoing efforts target overtime reduction, grievance mechanisms, and health and safety improvements.
Plans for 2024/25: Focus areas include enhancing grievance mechanisms, increasing supplier visits, mapping beyond Tier 2 suppliers, and prioritizing worker safety amid regional unrest in Bangladesh.
Partnerships that create added value
For RevolutionRace, it is important that we share a vision with our ambassadors and partners, so that together we can create added value over the long term.
