- Q1104299 abstract "Based in Immokalee, Florida, the Coalition of Immokalee Workers (CIW) is a worker-based human rights organization internationally recognized for its achievements in the fields of social responsibility, human trafficking, and gender-based violence at work. Built on a foundation of farmworker community organizing starting in 1993, and reinforced with the creation of a national consumer network since 2000, CIW’s work has steadily grown over more than twenty years to encompass several overlapping spheres:Anti-Slavery Campaign: The CIW has aided in the investigation and federal prosecution of several slavery operations in Floridian agriculture. CIW received the 2015 Presidential Medal for Extraordinary Efforts to Combat Human Trafficking in Persons for "pioneering the Fair Food Program, empowering agricultural workers, and leveraging market forces and consumer awareness to promote supply chain transparency and eradicate modern slavery on participating farms." Previously, the U.S. Department of State presented the CIW with a 2010 Hero Acting to End Modern-Day Slavery Award and credited the CIW for developing "a multi-sectoral approach, tapping NGOs, law enforcement, labor inspectors and the survivors, themselves" to combat forced labor in the U.S. agriculture industry.Campaign for Fair Food: The CIW’s national Campaign for Fair Food educates consumers on the issue of farm labor exploitation – its causes and solutions – and forges alliances between farmworkers and consumers that enlist the market power of major corporate buyers to help end that exploitation. The CIW’s Campaign for Fair Food has secured agreements with fourteen major food retailers, including Yum Brands, McDonald's, Compass Group, and Walmart. In 2010, the campaign resulted in the creation of the Fair Food Program (FFP), following a historic agreement between the CIW and the Florida Tomato Growers Exchange to implement the Fair Food Code of Conduct on 90% of the state’s tomato farms, affecting approximately 30,000 acres of production and tens of thousands of workers.Fair Food Program: In 2011, CIW launched the Fair Food Program (FFP), a groundbreaking model for Worker-driven Social Responsibility (WSR) based on a unique partnership among farmworkers, Florida tomato growers, and participating retail buyers, including Subway, Whole Foods, and Walmart. Under the FFP, CIW conducts worker-to-worker education sessions, held on-the-farm and on-the-clock, on the new labor standards set forth in the program’s Fair Food Code of Conduct; The Fair Food Standards Council, a third-party monitor created to ensure compliance with the FFP, conducts regular audits and carries out ongoing complaint investigation and resolution; and Participating buyers pay a small Fair Food premium which tomato growers pass on to workers as a line-item bonus on their regular paychecks (Between January 2011 and September 2015, nearly $20 million in Fair Food premiums were paid into the Program).The FFP standards are enforced through market consequences guaranteed by CIW’s legally binding Fair Food Agreements, in which participating buyers commit to buy Florida tomatoes only from growers in good standing with the FFP, and to cease purchases from growers who have failed to comply with the code of conduct. The United Nations Working Group on Business and Human Rights has described the FFP model as “smart mix of tools” that “could serve as a model elsewhere in the world.” The CIW's Fair Food Program has gained widespread recognition from experts in the fields of human rights and social responsibility: In 2015, the CIW was awarded the Presidential Medal for Extraordinary Efforts to Combat Human Trafficking in Persons "for its extraordinary efforts to combat human trafficking by pioneering the Fair Food Program, empowering agricultural workers, and leveraging market forces and consumer awareness to promote supply chain transparency and eradicate modern slavery on participating farms." In 2014, the Clinton Global Initiative presented CIW with its eighth annual Clinton Global Citizen Award, calling the Fair Food Program "a breakthrough, worker-driven approach to verifiable corporate accountability recognized by the United Nations and the White House for its unique effectiveness." In his remarks at the conclusion of the award ceremony in New York, President Bill Clinton described the Fair Food Program as "the most astonishing thing politically happening in the world we’re living in today." The FFP has also received national media attention from the New York Times, the Washington Post, and PBS Frontline.Worker-driven Social Responsibility: Through the Fair Food Program, CIW has also pioneered the development of a new form of human rights protection for workers within corporate supply chains known Worker-driven Social Responsibility (WSR). In contrast to traditional corporate social responsibility (CSR) and multi-stakeholder initiatives (MSIs), the WSR approach includes:Worker leadership in the drafting of standards as well as program design and implementation;Multiple layers of monitoring driven by the informed participation of the workers whose rights are in question; andEnforcement backed by market consequences rooted in binding agreements with the brands at the top of the supply chain. This model is being implemented in the Vermont dairy industry, and elements of the approach can also be seen in the Accord on Fire and Building Safety in Bangladesh.".
