Swedish retailer H&M has outlined the start of a new strategy for leather in its Conscious Actions Sustainability Report 2014. It joined the Leather Working Group in 2009 and previously committed to gradually increase the use of leather that is either graded by the LWG or certified organic. However, it stated: "These currently do not cover all critical issues in leather production, such as key labour, health and safety and animal welfare aspects. While we are still promoting the use of these certifications, we made the decision to focus our efforts on reworking our strategy for leather products to also take these aspects into account."
