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 Tom Wood “It's a Start”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

• Some of its supply chain is certified by Responsible Jewellery Council.
• Its Code of Conduct covers ILO Four Fundamental Freedoms principles.
• It partly traces its supply chain including the final and some of the second production stages.
• There’s no evidence it ensures workers are paid living wages in its supply chain.

Brands’ animal welfare policies and, where applicable, how well they trace their animal-derived products are the focus of our “Animals” rating. Since Tom Wood makes products that are generally free of animal-derived materials other than pearls, we’ve not rated its impact on animals. Its overall rating is based on its combined environment and labour scores.

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