Certified organic
An environmental label: no synthetic pesticides or fertilisers. It says almost nothing about workers.
- Not a labour standard, so it doesn't affect the grade
What it is
Organic certification covers how crops are grown, without synthetic pesticides and fertilisers. That can be safer for farm workers, but it has no rules on wages or working conditions.
What it checks
- Farming without synthetic chemicals
What it doesn't
- No labour standards beyond the basics
