Electronics Watch's mission is to use public procurement leverage to promote and protect the rights of workers in global supply chains.
Public buyers exercising social responsibility
Civil society organisations and democratic trade unions supporting workers in attaining their rights
Employers complying fully with domestic and international labour rights and safety standards
Brand companies and resellers disclosing suppliers and compliance data and taking effective action to remedy labour rights and safety breaches in their supply chains
Amsterdam has become the first Dutch entity to join the Low Emission Vehicle (LEV) Programme. This initiative, launched in 2022, is extending the successful Electronics Watch impact model into the automotive sector. The programme already includes six Electronics Watch affiliates and three other public sector participants from Belgium, Germany, Norway, Spain and the UK.
A new study from the OECD underlines the limitations of most ESG data, with 80% of metrics on labour rights and human rights found to be self-reported by companies, with no input from supply chain workers at all.
Today, we proudly mark a decade of Electronics Watch! Founded on 19 February 2015, our organisation emerged from a three-year EU funded initiative, uniting seven NGOs with a shared vision: to harness the power of public procurement to protect workers' rights.
