Our “Planet” rating evaluates brands based on the environmental policies in their supply chains, from carbon emissions and wastewater to business models and product circularity. Here we rate TAG Heuer “Good”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

• It uses few lower-impact materials.
• It’s set a science based target to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in both its direct operations and supply chain but there’s no evidence it is on track.
• There’s no evidence it takes action to address waste in its supply chain.
• It manufactures its products closer to home to reduce the climate impact of long-distance shipping.
• There’s no evidence it’s taking meaningful action to reduce or eliminate hazardous chemicals in manufacturing.

Workers’ rights are central to our “People” rating, which assess brands’ policies and practices on everything from child labour to living wages and gender equality. Here we rate TAG Heuer “Not Good Enough”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

• None of its supply chain is certified by crucial labour standards that help ensure worker health and safety, living wages, and other rights.
• It received a score of 21-30% in the 2022 Fashion Transparency Index.
• It has a basic policy to support diversity and inclusion in its direct operations and supply chain.
• There’s no evidence it ensures workers are paid living wages in its supply chain.
• During the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, it did not disclose adequate policies or safeguards to protect workers in its supply chain from the virus.

Brands’ animal welfare policies and, where applicable, how well they trace their animal-derived products are the focus of our “Animals” rating. Here we rate TAG Heuer “It’s a Start”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

• It has a basic policy of animal welfare with no clear implementation mechanisms in place.
• It appears to use leather and exotic animal skin.
• It doesn’t appear to use wool, down, fur, angora, or exotic animal hair.
• It traces some animal-derived materials to the first production stage.

Based on all publicly available information we’ve reviewed, we rate TAG Heuer “It’s a Start” overall.
