It is our intention to reassure you that every garment manufactured by UCL is not only of the highest quality, but that we have also met certain criteria, which indicates that we are a compliant and ethical manufacturer, as well as that we have met certain criteria that indicates that we are a compliant and ethical manufacturer.
The concept of corporate social responsibility (CSR) has gained popularity in recent years across a wide range of organizations and corporations in Bangladesh, and is now considered a critical endeavor. It is widely acknowledged that corporate social responsibility is extremely important to all stakeholders, including customers and representatives from civil society organizations, and that this is especially true in the RMG business. The organization develops an environment in which enthusiastic participation in extracurricular activities is encouraged, aside from a strong devotion to one’s job. Coworkers have acquired a caring attitude toward one another as a result of these activities, which has resulted in a stronger sense of belonging to the UCL Family.

When it comes to corporate social responsibility, United Costume Limited is one of the most forward-thinking companies in the industry, according to the company. Our garment manufacturing firm has used contemporary management practices to guarantee that its workers work in an environment that is acceptable to all parties concerned in terms of social, environmental, and ethical issues. We have progressively modified our organizational policies in this direction over time in order to contribute to the achievement of our corporate social responsibility objectives.

Towards achieving our objective, our corporate social responsibility plan serves as a road map. Participating in a variety of activities demonstrates our commitment to our coworkers as well as to the greater community at large. It is only natural that our approach to corporate social responsibility (CSR) should follow from our entire company strategy. Human resources, compliance, and welfare are all managed by a separate department that monitors all facilities on a regular basis and provides daily reports to the appropriate employees in the organization. When a concern to health or safety is discovered, they take the required steps to mitigate the situation.

The company’s CSR policy and actions are known to all employees, regardless of their position or level of experience, because we communicate with them through a variety of channels, including awareness meetings, public address systems, mid-level management meetings, daily production meetings, and recruitment orientation, to name a few. We have set aside a specific budget for our operations related to corporate social responsibility. Our corporate social responsibility programs are evaluated both internally and externally in order to establish their overall efficacy and efficiency. United Costume Limited feels that profit sharing with its workers is a healthy business practice since it helps the community as a whole. In addition to offering free medical, health, and hygiene services to all of its employees, the firm also offers emergency financial aid as well as educational opportunities to those who qualify for them. Safeguarding the environment through safety plans and frequent drills ensures that facilities are maintained up to date and that staff are aware of possible risks and well-prepared to respond to them if the unexpected occurs.

CSR initiatives are carried out in partnership with the following organizations: • GIZ • Marie Stopes Clinic • BGMEA • BKMEA

We have implemented necessary measures for employees to reduce occupational health and safety risks, including increased awareness of company rules and regulations, abuse and harassment, grievance procedures, the consumption of potable water, the safe operation of machinery, the proper use of safety equipment, the use of electrical safety, and the conduct of fire drills and evacuation drills. Inspections of our subcontractors’ facilities are performed to ensure that they are not exposed to potentially dangerous working circumstances. In this circumstance, we rely on the manufacturer who has been approved by the client to complete the subcontract, and it is at this location that our internal audits are conducted as well.

In order for our organization to be successful, its long-term viability and sustainability are essential to our goals and objectives. We are firmly of the opinion that we must be completely committed to and conscious of our corporate social responsibility, social responsibility, and environmental protection aims and obligations in order to achieve them successfully. We are likewise dedicated to complying with all applicable laws, rules, and regulations that govern our company operations and operations. Regarding international instruments, we are equally committed to and respectful of all applicable international instruments, regardless of where they came from. Every one of our workers will be educated on the significance of adopting a comprehensive Environmental Management System (EMS), which includes waste management practices. So we want to work with business partners and other important stakeholders to share our expertise, information, and experience in order to address environmental concerns and generally make the world a better place to live.

Our social code of conduct aspires to adhere to internationally recognized social and environmental standards in accordance with the Amfori BSCI, International Labor Organization conventions, SEDEX COC Standards, the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and United Nations conventions on the rights of children and the elimination of all forms of discrimination against women, among other things.

Our activities are guided by a vision of business practices that are socially responsible and ecologically beneficial. In order to create a good balance between our economic operations and the crucial care we must offer for our natural environment and the human beings who are involved in or impacted by our economic activities, we have established an overarching vision and mission. The following social criteria are applicable to both our business partners and ourselves in addition to the quality, transaction, and environmental standards that we set.
