- It uses low impact materials that help limit the chemicals, water, and wastewater in its supply chain.
- There’s no evidence it minimises textile waste in its supply chain.
- Its packaging is recyclable.
Workers’ rights are central to our “People” rating, which assess brands’ policies and practices on everything from child labour to living wages and gender equality. Here we rate Conscious Step “Good”. These are a few factors influencing its score:
- Most of its supply chain is certified by Fairtrade International - Small Producers Organisations, and Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) certified organic cotton.
- There's no evidence it has a Code of Conduct but it has a formal statement covering workers rights.
- It traces most of its supply chain.
- It’s not clear if it ensures workers are paid living wages in its supply chain.
