Sumerra was created to meet the needs of Brands, Factories, and Licensees who are striving to improve working conditions and reduce risks throughout the world. Sumerra’s knowledge, expertise, and experience is unmatched. Our foundation is the belief that every worker in every factory should be treated fairly while working allowed to work in safe conditions, and that the surrounding environment and communities should be kept clean and healthy. We strongly believe that this can, and should, be accomplished, while increasing profitability and production. Safe Factories are productive Factories. Employees who feel valued are more productive. Factories that manage their environmental and social risks also manage production risks at a higher level. Factories that can manage compliance well, generally manage cost, quality, and delivery at an equally high level – all of which result in better and, more profitable factories. Sumerra assists Factories in becoming these high performing Factories. It is Sumerra’s goal to increase the management systems and programs that promote the fair treatment of workers, worker health and safety, and environmental stewardship through education, accountability, and collaboration. Sumerra is a positive force in the global marketplace, and can be a force for good in your organization.
