Moda Livre

This application is for those who love to walk well dressed, but do not want someone to be exploited to sew their pants or skirt. After all, who has never heard of a case of slave labor involving suppliers of famous brands?

The proposal is to bring to the public, in an agile and accessible way, the measures that the brands - the main clothing retailers in the country and companies that have already been caught by inspectors from the Ministry of Labor and Employment (MTE) - have been taking to prevent pieces sold in their stores are produced by slave labor.

All companies were asked to answer a questionnaire and, based on the answers, received a score that classifies them into three color categories - green, yellow and red -, according to their conduct. Those that did not respond were automatically included in the red category.
The evaluation criterion considers four indicators:

1. Policies: commitments made by companies to combat slave labor in their supply chain.

2. Monitoring: measures taken to inspect clothing suppliers.

3. Transparency: actions taken to communicate to customers what has been done to monitor suppliers and combat slave labor.

4. History: summary of the involvement of companies in cases of slave labor, according to the Ministry of Labor and Employment (MTE).

The app does not recommend that consumers buy or stop buying clothes of a certain brand. It only brings information so that you can make your choice consciously. It is a free service to the consumer, the result of the investigation of the journalism team of Repórter Brasil.
