Here are some answersto recurring questions: |
Is there a list of “fair” or “ethical” toys?Where should consumers buy their toys? |
Why is there no “fair toy” label?There could only be a label for a “fair toy” if we could be 100% sure that this toy is produced under fair working conditions. |
Would a fair toy not be very expensive?Even though many companies list this argument for not implementing a code of conduct – the answer is NO! |
How do I know who produced my toys?The first indication is the label on the toy or on its package. The information given there should help you find out more about the manufacturer. |
Does the Stop Toying Around! Campaign call on consumers to boycott the toy industy?No! Stop Toying Around! wants workers to keep their jobs, so the worst thing that can happen is that companies decide to cut their ties with a business in a factory or country and move somewhere else. |
Are small and medium sized companies also responsible for working conditions at their suppliers?Every company is responsible! Every company must check where their toys are produced and ensure human rights are not violated! |
