What is Fair Trade ?
Fair trade is the practice of products being made ethically that specifically focuses on workers rights and safety
Fair trade ensures that all employees are payed a living wage and that working conditions are safe.
Fair trade products are produced in countries with inadequate labor laws – meaning most workers are forced to work dangerously long hours and in hazardous conditions that may lead to injury or even death.
