Labour Behind The Label

LBL's new Killer Jeans report reveals the shame of the denim industry and its potentially deadly dangers to workers' health.

Campaigners from the UK anti-sweatshop group, Labour Behind the Label, will be hiding messages in the pockets of thousands of pairs of designer jeans this week to highlight the serious health risks faced by workers making jeans for designer brands including Dolce and Gabanna and Armani.

Our latest action card deals with the serious issue of sandblasting and calls for a ban on the practice with specific cards targeting ASDA and River Island that may be detached and sent.
