IndustriALL affiliate launches COVID-19 campaign in Ethiopia

Addis Ababa, June 17, 2020 (FBC) – The Industrial Federation of Textile, Leather, and Garment Workers Trade Union has launched a campaign in Ethiopia’s burgenoning garment industry.

The campaign looks to raise awareness of best health and safety practices in native factories whilst COVID-19 remains at large.

Though Ethiopia hasn’t faced the lockdown measures imposed in many other key apparel manufacturing nations, it has of course been affected by retracted orders from brands and retailers.

As these companies now reopen stores, Ethiopia and many other countries like it will be tasked with hitting the ground running with exporting goods.

As to ecotextile.com, Industrial Federation, an affiliate of the IndustriALL Global Union and member of the Confederation of Ethiopian Trade Unions, will look to spread the word of best hygiene practices for workers.
