WFSGI-INTRODUCTION   WFSGI简介

The World Federation of the Sporting Goods Industry (WFSGI) was formed in 1978 to promote the world’s sporting activities, to standardise the size of equipment and the rules of sport, to improve the standards of quality for sporting goods and to promote responsible and sustainable practices in sporting goods internationally. Today the WFSGI
consists of a diverse global membership including brands, manufacturers, retailers and national & regional sports federations (“members”).

The ideals of the WFSGI are the ideals of sport, and the organisation seeks to promote fairness, honesty, mutual understanding and high ethical standards. WFSGI is committed to fostering a sports industry in which members actively build business partnerships with those who share the values of sport and take responsibility for making the values real through active engagement.

WFSGI members recognize the important role they play in the global economy and their influence on the social and economic conditions under which sporting goods are produced. That influence is exercised both through their actions as employers, and, far more profoundly, through their decisions as customers of companies that serve as suppliers
of goods and services (“suppliers”).

For the purpose of this Code “employer” refers to both members and suppliers when they are responsible for employees.

The Principles of the WFSGI Code of Conduct are based on relevant Conventions of the International Labour Organization (ILO), the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and internationally accepted occupational health and safety standards.

The purpose of the Code is to guide WFSGI members in the standards and practices expected in the workplaces that they operate or contract from.

WFSGI also acknowledges that companies operate under different legal, economic, social and cultural environments and these differences merit understanding and respect. Never the less, the WFSGI Code of Conduct applies to all WFSGI members, their suppliers and any authorised sub-contractors involved in the production process.
