The Ethical Trading Initiative (ETI) is a leading alliance focused on improving working conditions in global supply chains. The L5M5 study guide (p.260) explains that ETI membership comprises:
Private businesses (such as retailers and brands),
Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs), and
Trade Unions.
This tripartite approach enables collaboration between commercial, labour, and social interests to improve standards. Governments are not direct members, although their legislation can influence ethical trading. Public sector bodies may adopt ETI principles but are not core members. ETI’s Base Code, founded on ILO conventions, outlines key principles including no forced labour, freedom of association, and fair working conditions.
