The Welsh Government: Ethical Employment in Supply Chains
The Welsh Government’s Ethical Employment in Supply Chains Code of Practice is a comprehensive framework designed to promote fair and ethical employment practices throughout the public sector’s supply chains. With the Welsh public sector spending approximately £6 billion annually on goods, services, and works, the code aims to ensure that every stage of the supply chain upholds good employment standards, empowering and rewarding workers while improving the quality of goods and services. By addressing issues such as unfair zero-hours contracts and modern slavery, the code seeks to eliminate unethical practices and safeguard the wellbeing of workers both in Wales and globally. This initiative is crucial for fostering a more just and sustainable economy while contributing to the overall wellbeing of communities connected to these supply chains.
The dataset includes organisations that have signed up to the Welsh Government’s Ethical Employment in Supply Chains Code of Practice, reflecting their commitment to promoting fair and ethical employment practices. This directly supports Commitment 6 of the code, which expects suppliers to adopt the Code of Practice to ensure ethical practices are upheld throughout the supply chain. For organisations unsure about committing, a quick start page is available to guide them through the process and help them understand the benefits of signing up to the code. This resource ensures that adopting the code is straightforward and accessible for all.
