Corporate Social Responsibility of Forever 21

CSR of Forever 21

Corporate Social Responsibility came into use in the early 1970’s after many corporations were formed. Corporate Social responsibly is a form of self-regulation performed by corporations. Most, if not all corporations, have a CSR program developed into their business model.

CSR programs are designed to ensure active compliances with the law, ethical standards and international norms, as well as the environment demands regarding energy and sustainability. The overall goal of a CSR program is to accept responsibility for any actions in which the company may take part in.

Just as a consumer has choices, at Forever 21, they take the business choices seriously, including in the way they obtain the products they sell. At Forever 21, they strive to have a positive impact not only within stores and corporate family, but also upon hundreds of vendor manufacturing facilities throughout the world.

For Forever 21 these choices as part of a work in progress and that there is always more to do:

·         Supplier and Vendor Social Compliance and Ethical Sourcing

Forever 21

Forever 21 wants all of its employees also to work in safe and healthy environments and to provide products to the consumer, which are made by such employees.

Therefore, its Corporate Social Responsibility program includes the Forever 21 Vendor Audit Program. While many of its vendors have worked with Forever 21 for a number of years and are trusted, all suppliers and vendors must provide factory contact information and all factories must participate in the audit program.
