boohoo's environment rating is 'not good enough'. It uses few eco-friendly materials. There is no evidence it has taken meaningful action to reduce or eliminate hazardous chemicals. It has set a science-based target to reduce greenhouse gas emissions generated from its own operations and supply chain but there is no evidence it is on track to meet its target. There is no evidence it minimises textile waste when manufacturing its products.

Its labour rating is 'not good enough'. Little of its supply chain is certified by labour standards which ensure worker health and safety, living wages or other labour rights. It received a score of 21-30% in the 2022 Fashion Transparency Index. There is no evidence it implements practices to encourage diversity and inclusion in its direct operations or supply chain. There is no evidence it ensures payment of a living wage in its supply chain. It does not disclose adequate policies or safeguards to protect suppliers and workers in its supply chain from the impacts of COVID-19.

Its animal rating is 'not good enough'. There is no evidence it has a policy to minimise the suffering of animals. It uses leather, down and wool. It does not use fur, angora, exotic animal hair or exotic animal skin. There is no evidence it traces any animal products to the first stage of production.

Boohoo is rated 'Not good enough' overall.
