New member-only guidance available: AAFA is pleased to announce our newest resource, the Joint Disclosure Guide: Meeting the UK Modern Slavery & California Transparency Laws (an AAFA Member Compliance Publication). The guide is meant to help companies publish a single disclosure to comply with both the requirements of the United Kingdom (UK) Modern Slavery Act and the California Transparency in Supply Chains Act.

Labeling Q&A: In case you missed it, AAFA has developed The International Apparel & Footwear Labeling Matrix (login required) to provide AAFA members with an overview of the mandatory labeling requirements for adult apparel and footwear in 37 countries. This resource is a direct response to input from AAFA members who have expanded or are seeking to expand their business internationally and may need additional help navigating international labeling requirements.
