Italy
Published:  08 September, 2009

The Italian tanners' association UNIC issued a statement at the beginning of September committing their members to social and environmental responsibilities drawn up by the EU to trade unions.

The social and environmental commitment of UNIC (Unione Nazionale Industria Conciaria) Italian tannery members have subscribed to a European agreement with the employee trade unions concerning the respect of human rights in the workplace and the responsible use of natural and environmental resources.

This ‘declaration of social and environmental commitment' is considered as an element of excellence towards consumers in the international market.

Since 1999 UNIC members adopted their own ethical code and they have acquired many certifications for leather quality, environmental and product processing.
