COTANCE and industriAll extend survey deadline

18/12/2017
In little more than one month, the University of Northampton has collected more than 100 responses to a survey on workplace safety in tanneries in Europe. The university is running the exercise on behalf of European Union leather industry body COTANCE and trade union organisation industriAll.

To encourage an even stronger participation, the two organisations have extended the deadline and have now given interested parties until January 25 to take part.

In a statement, they said: “Everybody in the leather value chain is invited to participate, from the tannery worker to the brand manager, including chemicals and machinery suppliers, as well as testing houses, NGOs following the industry, sector associations and public authorities.”
