ACT Responsible Exit Policy and Checklist

This short resource from ACT can help you to implement an effective process for responsible factory exits. The strategy applies to all exits from factories, whether the production unit has a direct relationship with your brand, is a sub-contractor, or is contracted by an agent. It includes a checklist for collecting information before exiting, including internal communication and initial risk assessment measures; a checklist for exiting, including supplier communication and ongoing risk assessment measures; and a checklist for immediately after exiting, including measures for assessing adverse impact on workers. This resource will benefit sustainability professionals, operations managers, and senior leaders.
