International: Bargaining on CSR and workers' rights at Inditex

Inditex, a major Spain-based fashion multinational, signed a worldwide agreement on workers' rights in its commercial and distribution operations in October 2009. In 2007, it had signed a similar accord for its manufacturing operations, including external suppliers, and the new agreement underlines the company's commitment to engaging trade unions in its global corporate social responsibility (CSR) approach.
