Eastman Exports, an apparel manufacturer in India, has onboarded Labor Solutions throughout all its’ 10 facilities to provide workers with technology for Education, Connection and Engagement. Recently Eastman has decided to refocus efforts on ensuring worker safety and engagement and determined WOVO was key to this strategy.
The agreement brings together the management and workers through Labor Solutions’ flagship all-in-one tool, WOVO. WOVO allows workers to access digital trainings from partners, communicate with their employer anonymously, submit safety reports, view their pay slip and give input through worker surveys. WOVO provides a secure and anonymous grievance line for workers, a key mandate for companies under several new human rights due diligence laws globally.
The WOVO dashboard allows the Eastman Exports team to live secure and anonymized data to track trends and understand challenges quickly and directly from workers. The tool also enables the factory group to design and instantly deploy surveys to all their workers, broadcast messages, distribute pay slips, share files, and send calendar invites among other features.
Eastman Exports caters to global clients including leading global apparel brands, boutiques, and high street retailers. As a fast, responsive manufacturer, the group must continuously improve their worker engagement strategy. Using WOVO will allow them to educate, connect, and engage with their workforce in real time.
Labor Solutions, a social enterprise, leverages technology to connect, engage and educate workers to build resilient supply chains. Over a million and a half workers in 25 countries have access to Labor Solutions’ worker engagement platform, WOVO.
