Responsibility to our employees, customers and communities is the foundation on which the Ruia Group was built on
The Ruia Group is a family controlled organisation and operates to the high standards of integrity that any family will recognise. Our business has a responsibility to create sustainable growth across the UK, and we will deliver this in the right way. We have long believed that environment, social and governance matters are critical to the ways in which we do business.
Building a More Sustainable, Resilient Supply Chain
Promoting working conditions around the world is extremely important to everyone at Richard Haworth. As such we are member of both the Ethical Trading Initiative (ETI) and SEDEX. The ETI is a leading alliance of companies, trade unions and NGOs that promotes respect for workers' rights around the globe. Our vision is a world where all workers are free from exploitation and discrimination, and enjoy conditions of freedom, security and equity.
SEDEX provides one of the world’s leading online platforms for companies to manage and improve working conditions in global supply chains. It provides practical tools, services and a community network to help companies improve their responsible and sustainable business practices, and source responsibly.
Charitable Associations
Charitable commitments are an important part of the Group philosophy. Charities supported include Orbis International, Global Giving World, Coffee Kids, Save the Tiger Fund and EK Prayaas children’s school in India. In the local community the group has been a patron of the Bolton Lads and Girls Club for many years.
