For Brands, Investors, Governments, and Policy Makers

We leverage our grassroots access to provide a unique bottom-up, independent view of labor conditions around the globe.

Verité examines the systems that cause vulnerability for workers and risk for corporations and investors, identifying solutions to resolve those vulnerabilities. We gather information not generally available, utilizing our overseas networks of labor researchers to explore local sources and to conduct interviews with representatives of government, business, labor unions, and NGOs. We compare findings from primary and secondary research with our own experiences of labor auditing. The result is a thorough and locally-oriented assessment of risk.



IMPACT:

Verité pioneered the first quantification of the fees paid by foreign migrant workers – which is the cause of vulnerability for millions of workers around the world. Since then, we have built upon this research to develop the Help Wanted fair hiring toolkit, which helps suppliers and brands identify and eliminate labor abuses for migrant workers.
