Supporting suppliers and subcontractors Sample Clauses

Supporting suppliers and subcontractors. A number of GFAs include commitments to carry out joint work and training programmes at MNE subsidiaries in different countries. Yet they only seldom include provisions on training programmes or customized guidance directly targeted at suppliers and subcontractors. Adherence to specific stand- ards set out in GFAs can be difficult for suppliers and subcontractors; the formulation of standards in GFAs can pose particular challenges for small and medium-sized companies (SMEs) in the global supply chain. There is a disproportionate incidence of occupational accidents and health problems in SMEs, and thus many GFAs stipulate strict observance of OSH standards for a continuous business relationship with suppliers and subcontractors. To support adherence, technical support, readily acces- sible assessment tools and in particular customized guidance can be crucial to overcome knowledge gaps and to enable SMEs and their workers to improve working conditions. A few GFAs contain clauses on how to support a learning process in supplier companies to meet the standards set out in the agreement. These provisions can include collaborating on training programmes for the management and workers, or general support for small and medium-sized suppli- ers and subcontractors. These training provisions should be designed to progress the implementation of the GFA and to facilitate democratic labour relations at suppliers and subcontractors. Box 14 gives examples how references to training measures and support of SMEs can be framed in GFAs. Box 14 Support for suppliers and subcontractors in the GSC Inditex-IndustriALL: “Inditex and IndustriALL Global Union undertake jointly to develop training policies and programmes on labour issues designed to progress the implementation of the Agreement throughout the Inditex supply chain.”
