SanMar Corp., Seattle, WA, announced it has been accepted as a participating company of the Fair Labor Association (FLA). The FLS is a non-profit organization established to defend workers’ rights worldwide. SanMar says its involvement with the FLA further strengthens its long-standing commitment to human rights and compliance with labor laws across its supply chain.

“SanMar takes social compliance very seriously and requires all suppliers to adhere to our Global Operating Principles,” says Marty Lott, president of SanMar. “This process begins during supplier selection as it is critical that suppliers share our commitment to ethical practices and agree to abide by our strict requirements prior to receiving orders.”
