Our clothing kills

To Benetton CEO Marco Airoldi:

In one of the worst industrial accident of the 21st century, thousands of Rana Plaza garment factory workers were buried alive making clothes for some of the world’s richest corporations. To date, all major multinational companies with confirmed ties to the Rana Plaza factory have contributed to the Rana Plaza Arrangement compensation scheme for the victims -- except Benetton. As citizens of the world, we urge Benetton to join the scheme, so survivors of this horrific disaster receive full compensation.

Our clothing kills
In just 90 seconds an eight storey sweatshop in Bangladesh collapsed. 1,134 people died, and some survivors even sawed through their own limbs to escape. Out of the horror, a ground-breaking compensation scheme was set up. Incredibly, it’s working - but survivors need our help to get one complicit company to pay up.

Billion-dollar clothing giant Benetton refuses to compensate the Bangladeshi victims who made their clothes - the only major global brand with undisputed links that hasn’t contributed. They think their customers have forgotten about this disaster, so they’re ignoring survivors, and continuing to dodge their duty.

In days fashion week begins in Milan. It's the biggest fashion event in Benetton's most important market, and they're going be out to impress. So if we shame them with huge public pressure they'll see their brand under threat, and be forced to pay up.
