Project Closed

In 2017, Humanity United supported Laborlink by Good World Solutions to articulate best practices in technology-enabled worker engagement, known as the Worker Engagement Supported by Technology Principles, or the WEST Principles. The WEST Principles aimed to maximize the impact of technology-driven efforts to identify and address the risk of abuse and exploitation of workers in global supply chains by encouraging the adoption of a common set of guidelines.

Convened by Humanity United and Laborlink by Good World Solutions, the authors of the WEST Principles included GeoPoll, MicroBenefits, Ulula, and Labor Solutions. The Principles were collaboratively developed in consultation with stakeholders across supply chains including brands, employers, NGOs, industry leaders, and issue experts.
