Improving Working Conditions in the Global Garment Industry

FLA Watch was created to expose the truth about the Fair Labor Association (FLA). The FLA purports to be an "independent" monitor of working conditions in the apparel industry. But the organization is funded and controlled by the very corporations that have been repeatedly found to be sweatshop violators. The FLA's recent dishonest attack on United Students Against Sweatshops' (USAS) new Sweatfree Campus Campaign showcases the true agenda of this "fox guarding the hen house" scheme. FLA Watch is an effort to set the record straight on the new anti-sweatshop proposal and to expose the truth about the FLA's ongoing failure to defend the rights of workers. FLA Watch is a project of United Students Against Sweatshops.

The Center is a place for garment workers to organize. There are monthly educational workshops that explain issues such as wage and hour laws, health and safety regulations and discrimination. Garment workers also come to find help with their work problems - if they have not gotten paid, if they were fired unfairly or if the factory is engaging in unfair and unsafe practices. The center also provides a space to centralize all the efforts happening against sweatshops and to help garment workers.

United Students Against Sweatshops is an international student movement of campuses and individual students fighting for sweatshop free labor conditions and workers' rights. We define 'sweatshop' broadly and recognize that it is not limited to the apparel industry, but everywhere among us. We believe that university standards should be brought in line with those of its students who demand that their school's logo is emblazoned on clothing made in decent working conditions. We have fought for these beliefs by demanding that our universities adopt ethically and legally strong codes of conduct, full public disclosure of company information and truly independent verification systems to ensure that sweatshop conditions are not happening.
