Swarovski's environment rating is it's a start. It uses few eco-friendly materials. There is no evidence it has a policy to protect biodiversity in its supply chain. There is no evidence it has set a deadline to eliminate hazardous chemicals. It reuses some of its waste product in the production process.

Its labour rating is 'not good enough'. It states it has a Code of Conduct but does not publicly share it. There is no evidence it has worker empowerment initiatives such as collective bargaining or rights to make a complaint. It traces some of its supply chain. There is no evidence it ensures payment of a living wage in its supply chain. It discloses partially adequate policies and safeguards to protect suppliers and workers in its supply chain from the impacts of COVID-19.

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