Justice Mail Action 15 Jan 2013


Dear Justice Mail Friends

Justice Mail now has a website http://www.justicemail.org.uk . Among other items the website has information about the five current Justice Mail Groups and also links to all the organisations whose campaigns that we support. It also explains how new groups can be set up. We hope that the website will be a means greatly expanding Justice Mail. I hope you enjoy looking at the site.

ACTION

Since 2006 at least 500 Bangladeshi garment workers have died in factory fires while sewing clothing for giant fashion companies, like Gap and H&M.

Six months ago Gap publicly promised it would sign on to a worker safety program that would include independent inspections, mandatory repairs and renovations of safety hazards, a central role for workers and unions, transparency and binding commitments to protect workers.

Labour Behind the Label ask us to join Bangladeshi and international unions and labour groups that are calling on Gap to implement this fire safety program that will save the lives of Bangladeshi garment workers. Use the link below to email such a request to Gap.


Cheers
