Publishing audit results for specific named facilities shows a clear commitment to transparency from brands and can drive improvements in supplier compliance. It also provides stakeholders with useful information that can enable labour and environmental issues to be resolved quickly and collaboratively.

A note on the scoring system

Wikirate has a standardised 10-point scoring system making it possible to compare company scores across different benchmarks. On Wikirate.org, the Fashion Transparency Index scoring system, where each company can get a maximum of 250 points, has been converted to the 10-point scoring system - with 10 being the highest a company can score and 0 being the lowest. These company scores can also be translated to percentages e.g. if a company has scored 2.5 out of 10 on Wikirate, they have achieved 25% of the 250 points in the Fashion Transparency Index.
