What is the University’s policy regarding the manufacture of university-licensed hats, t-shirts and other apparel?

0

A. The U-M is committed to fair and lawful labor practices in the manufacture of university-licensed goods. On February 16, 2001, U-M adopted a strong Code of Conduct for Licensees that sets forth labor standards for the manufacture of licensed products. The code of conduct was designed to improve labor conditions for apparel industry workers and addresses key issues such as forced labor, child labor, harassment or abuse of employees, nondiscrimination, health and safety, women’s rights, freedom of association and collective bargaining, hours of work and overtime, and compensation. The U-M code has been included in all licensing contracts signed after February 16, 2001. In addition, the President’s Advisory Committee on Labor Standards and Human Rights, (ACLSHR) a student-faculty-staff committee, develops and implements procedures for fact-finding and recommendations for University actions when complaints are received concerning violations of the University’s code of conduct.
