Governments and companies adapt workplaces to shield workers from the direct impacts of a changing environment. Universal social protections increase not only workers’, but our collective resilience to social and climate disruption. Everyone has sick leave, maternity pay, severance pay, pension funds and unemployment benefits to fall back on. Public spending serves the people through enabling social protections, workers’ rights and living wages, instead of funding social and environmental harm. Laws and enforceable brand agreements (like the International Accord) make brands accountable for worker welfare and safety. Brands also financially contribute to public social protection systems in the countries they source from, in addition to payments made by their suppliers.
