In 1996, President Clinton convened a meeting of multinational companies and NGOs<\/a> at the White House and challenged them to work together to improve working conditions in the apparel and footwear industries. This group became the Fair Labor Association, a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization incorporated in 1999.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, FLA is a collaborative effort of universities, civil society organizations, and socially responsible companies dedicated to protecting workers\u2019 rights around the world. Our work is not limited to any geographic region or industry; we operate around the world and make a positive difference in agriculture, apparel, and footwear.<\/p>\n\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
