ELEVATE is a global professional services firm that specializes in supply chain social, environmental and business performance. A recognized industry thought leader, ELEVATE believes that sustained, impactful improvement in social and environmental performance requires sincerity of intent and a responsible balance between maximizing financial return and meeting supplier responsibility requirements. ELEVATE calls this Business Driven Sustainability. ELEVATE’s mission is to help brands and retailers design and implement customized programs that identify risk and improve supply chain performance.
The Alliance for Bangladesh Worker Safety was founded by a group of North American apparel companies and retailers and brands who have joined together to develop and launch the Bangladesh Worker Safety Initiative, a binding, five-year undertaking that will be transparent, results-oriented, measurable and verifiable with the intent of improving safety in Bangladeshi ready-made garment (RMG) factories. Collectively, these Alliance members represent the overwhelming majority of North American imports of RMG from Bangladesh.
To date, the Alliance has inspected the 650+ factories producing for its member companies, developed corrective action plans for factories to make necessary safety improvements, trained 1.2 million workers on basic fire safety, launched training for security guards, and implemented a 3rd party worker helpline that workers can use to anonymously report safety concerns.
The Alliance has hired ELEVATE to manage the implementation of all programmatic activities in Bangladesh and to oversee an office in Dhaka. Currently, the Alliance has 50 staff in its Dhaka office and 3 staff in its San Francisco office.
