In their 2020 FTI (see here), Fashion Revolution reviewed and ranked 250 of the world’s largest – and therefore most damaging – fashion brands and retailers including several online companies. It considers 220 indicators covering areas including animal welfare, biodiversity, chemicals, climate, forced labour, gender equality, waste, recycling and working conditions. It finds that the majority of companies continue to lack transparency with 54% scoring 20% or less (100% is the best score). Some, including the major high street label Mexx, disclose nothing. More positively, there is evidence that participation in the FTI is influencing brands to increase disclosure. The index shows that, while there has been encouraging progress on disclosing supplier information, there continues to be a lack of transparency on living wages for workers in the supply chain. Transparency, especially in terms of purchasing practices, is particularly important during the current pandemic to hold brands accountable for their treatment of suppliers (read here). The fate of clothes unsold due to lockdown is of particular concern; only 18% of brands explain what they are doing to develop circular solutions that enable recycling. While 78% of brands publish a policy on energy use and carbon emissions, only 16% have emission targets aligned with the Paris Agreement. Only 16% publish annual carbon emissions associated with their supply chains where most climate impact occurs. FTI data are publicly available on wikirate.org.
