YESS first operated as a sponsorship initiative starting with its Pilot Project in 2021. Since then, we released the YESS Standards; created assessment procedures, training modules, and mill resources; and officially launched YESS in India and Pakistan.

With input from YESS Sponsors and stakeholders, to meet the requirements of due diligence legislation, and to evolve YESS to meet the needs of brands and civil society organizations (CSOs), the YESS Advisory Committee has decided to transition YESS to a multi-stakeholder membership initiative.

Membership is open to diverse stakeholders including CSOs, academics, industry associations, service providers, spinning and fabric mills, and a variety of companies of all shapes and sizes. Please check out our YESS Membership Brochure to learn more.

We look forward to having you join us and help us build an international due diligence community!
