Global safety standard to be followed in fashion industry

Suki Dusanj-Lenz, country co-ordinator for Fashion Revolution India has said the Indian fashion industry needs to embrace the highest safety standards for which the country must first stop using chemicals that are banned in the rest of the world. Referring to a global movement that desires greater transparency, sustainability and ethics in the fashion industry, she said. The movement followed the death of 1,138 workers in Dhaka while making garments in the Rana Plaza factory, which collapsed after a structural failure in the building on April 24, 2013.

“The sad thing is the staff was complaining about the building but nobody listened,” Suki said.

About the sustainability issues of the Indian fashion industry, she said, “There are layers of complexities in the fashion industry but one thing for sure is that India must look to international standards for the safety of the staff. There are chemicals that are banned in other parts of the world, yet India still uses them.”
