Ethical Clothing Australia has helped recover $926,166 in wages and entitlements for Australian textile, clothing and footwear (TCF) workers in the 2025-26 financial year, as the organisation continues efforts to improve workplace compliance across the local manufacturing sector.

Australian textile, clothing and footwear manufacturing will be in focus during Ethical Clothing Australia Week 2026, with Ethical Clothing Australia bringing workers, accredited businesses, unions and industry advocates together to highlight the skilled labour behind locally made products.

Australia’s accreditation body for the textile, clothing and footwear sector is calling for Olympic and Paralympic uniforms at the Brisbane 2032 Games to be locally and ethically manufactured, arguing the event presents a significant opportunity for Australian manufacturing.

Ethical Clothing Australia Week 2024 is scheduled to take place from 7 to 13 October, celebrating the people and businesses driving the ethical and local production of textiles, clothing, and footwear in Australia. 

The Ethical Clothing Australia (ECA) Week is slated to run from 9 to 15 October to celebrate ethical manufacturing within the textile, clothing, and footwear (TCF) industry.
