Social Labelling

Social labelling in Global Commerce Policy

In this regard, a definition of this issue is as follows: the practice of attaching a label or a mark to a product to indicate that it has been made under conditions of fair labour standards. There are no international rules on this, and many fear that compulsory social labelling would be the first step towards discriminatory treatment of sensitive products to protect some domestic industries. Proponents of the idea say that such is not their intent. Rugmark is an example of voluntary labelling. Products bearing this label are made without child labour. See also eco-labelling, genetic labelling and social clause.[1]
