“I've personally seen a great deal of progress in factories around the world over the past 15 years” said Steve Jesseph, WRAP CEO. “But, we have a long way to go as evidenced by the two recent fires in Bangladesh.The apparel industry became the poster child for what can go wrong in offshore manufacturing but has taken responsibility for factory inspections, training and education to prevent future disasters. And, the industry has become the global leader in compliance, working with local manufacturing partners to improve health and safety programs. Managers in other consumer products areas and heavy industry can learn a great deal from the lessons of their textile and apparel counterparts.”

On this 100th anniversary of the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire, the staff of WRAP remembers those who lost their lives and offers prayers that this kind of tragedy never happens again.
