CASE STUDY No.1.- IKEA

In search for coherence and sustainability, IKEA took decisive steps to place the Fair Wage methodology at the core of its different policies: of Human Resources, of Compensation, and of Sustainability. It also decided to have it applied not only for its suppliers but also for its own employees, with a series of pilot Fair Wage Assessments carried out among suppliers, service providers, stores and own industry groups.

CASE STUDY No.2.- UNILEVER

Unilever has put in place a global Fair Compensation strategy that was inspired by -and has taken many dimensions and principles from- the Fair Wage approach. It is a multi-dimensional approach that fights against sources of discrimination for instance by gender and also commits to pay a living wage.

CASE STUDY No.3.- H&M

H&M in 2013 decided to put in place a Fair Living Wage strategy. It is within this programme that it asked the FWN to carry out Fair Wage assessments on its first-tier suppliers. The Fair Wage Method implementation by the end of 2018 had covered 8 markets, involved 336 suppliers, and surveyed nearly 30,000 workers (27,591).

CASE STUDY No.4.- CLP HONG KONG

CLP is committed to the payment of fair wages. Following a fair wage assessment at its Headquarters in Hong Kong in the second half of 2018, Hong Kong energy supplier CLP was found to have excellent performance in almost all fair wage dimensions and was thus granted the Fair Wage certification in January 2019.
