NEW DELHI, Dec 14: Page Industries, the exclusive licensee of Jockey International in India, on Monday said the US apparel industry watchdog has re-certified its facility to be “socially compliant” months after allegations of human rights violations at the factory.
The US-based Worldwide Responsible Accredited Production (WRAP), which had launched this probe into one of the production facilities of the Bengaluru-based Page Industries, said human right violations allegations were substantiated by the findings of the audit.
“Located at Bommasandra, Bangalore in India, unit-3 was audited by WRAP as per its standard procedures in October 2020. WRAP has re-certified the facility to be socially compliant,” Page Industries said in a regulatory filing.
