A voice for the worker real-time data for you
Learn more about Laborlink

Factory workers that make our clothing and electronics are invisible. They have no channel to report unsafe conditions, harassment or exploitative practices to decision-makers. Laborlink leverages the rapid spread of mobile phones to establish an anonymous two-way communication channel for workers to report on true conditions with no fear of retaliation, and for companies to receive real-time data directly from workers 365 days a year.

Laborlink services are customizable to clients’ and partners’ needs, and data collected via Laborlink is used in a wide variety of ways. Some of the most common uses for data sourced via Laborlink include:

  • Listening to workers in this way helps us connect the dots between quality of life issues like workplace health and safety and business issues in manufacturing, such as worker retention and productivity.

  • Laborlink data has been really valuable to us in terms of understanding vulnerability and risk and hearing worker voices. It also helps us target our resources better in areas/topics that matters to our workers.

    — Eileen Fisher's Human Rights Leader, Luna Lee —

  • We need the right tools to go deeper into our supply chain and obtain meaningful data. Laborlink provides valuable technology and other tools which help us realize our social responsibility vision.

Other Tools

Labor Link is not the only way we give voice to marginalized workers and communities. Through our award-winning Fair Wage Guide and Amader Kotha Worker Helpline, we are also combining technology and localized knowledge to create win-win outcomes for everyone across the supply-chain.

Handicraft artisans are paid per piece and have little bargaining power. The Fair Wage Guide translates piece rate into hourly rate for 150+ countries, empowering workers and encouraging retailers to source responsibly. At the click of a button, the Guide generates a localized wage analysis and comparison to international poverty benchmarks. Artisans have seen incomes rise by 20% after using the tool.

Garment workers in Bangladesh often face unsafe working conditions and previously had no way to report risks to fire and building safety. Amader Kotha, or “Our Voice” in Bangla, is a first-of-its-kind Worker Helpline developed in partnership with the Alliance for Bangladesh Worker Safety, Clear Voice and grassroots NGO Phulki in Bangladesh. The tool has reached workers in 250+ factories and counting.
