Hotspot identification in the clothing industry using social life cycle assessment-opportunities and challenges of input-output modelling

摘要

A cradle-to-gate, input/output-based social life cycle assessment (SLCA) was conducted using the Swedish clothing consumption as a case study. The aim was to investigate the influence of the cut-off rule and the definition of "hotspots" in social hotspot assessment. A second aim was to identify social hotspots of Swedish clothing on a national level.
