About Us

Verité's mission is to ensure that people around the world work under safe, fair and legal conditions.

  • We accomplish this by illuminating problems, identifying solutions, implementing changes and documenting impacts.
  • We aim to use the leverage of international business to improve the income, security and freedom of workers around the world.
  • We believe that long-term, sustainable solutions to the worldwide problem of labor rights violations will emerge only with the leadership of local stakeholders. For our work with multinationals and their suppliers, we collaborate with in-country civil society organizations and experts, fielding offices in China, India, the Philippines, Mexico, Bangladesh, Western Europe, and other countries.
  • We are a solutions-oriented partner for all institutions that are committed to supporting fair and humane work within workplaces, supply chains and policy level. Companies engage us to help resolve specific problems they face. Foundations and aid agencies support us to address systematic topics that can't be solved within a single supply chain. Individuals provide donations that help us to create sustained solutions to on-going, egregious human rights violations.
