Date: January 12, 2007 

In a new research  “Transparency Report: How Hong Kong Garment Companies Can Improve Public Reporting of their Labour Standards”, Oxfam Hong Kong  assesses how well  Hong Kong  top apparel companies* are reporting to the public on labour standards and practices  in  their supply chain, and finds that all these companies are not providing the public sufficient information.

Let's turn the garment industry inside out –We have the right to know!

Oxfam Hong Kong  urges Hong Kong garment companies to increase transparency and disclose information that would allow consumers and investors to evaluate companies’ labour practices and make ethical choices when they shop.

Read the full-report  and add your voice in telling these companies that we have the right to know!
