ARTEIXO - Workers' rights campaigners are putting pressure on Zara owner Inditex, on the day of its annual shareholder meeting today, to sign a new legally binding agreement on garment factory safety in Bangladesh.
Inditex, one of the world's biggest fashion companies, was one of the original signatories to the Accord on Fire and Building Safety in Bangladesh which was set up to improve safety following the Rana Plaza disaster.
The company maintains that it is committed to workplace safety and strongly supports the establishment of a new agreement with clear accountability on all parties.
