Since its inception almost 10 years back, the company has been producing hand made carpets and rugs by using skilled men and women. For many weavers, rug making was an inherited skill that they had inherited from their forefathers. Inspite of being a hereditary custom of transferring the art of rug making from one generation to another, Jaipur Rugs has never encouraged its weavers to engage their children in rug making. We are totally against child labor in any industry.

Our company ensures that our products and manufacturing units adhere to the standards laid down as per federal laws pertaining to labor, minimum wages and discourage the employment of children in our weaving units both inhouse and outsourced. This is done by compliance and regular audits by third party independent companies such as SGS (Société Générale de Surveillance, the world's leading inspection, verification, testing and certification company), Intertek, BIS (Bureau of Indian standards) etc. Moreover we also comply with the the code of conduct involved in the production process of the final manufacturing stages of BSCI (Business Social Compliance Initiative). Besides this, at Jaipur Rugs Company, we have taken various other steps to ensure that we avoid using child labor. Following are some of the parameters that we strictly follow:

Our work contracts are always based upon the sole condition of non involvement of child labor. Jaipur Rugs Foundation, a non profit organization we promote, also checks for any such cases and takes action upon them. Providing training to the weavers so that they can enhance their skills, thereby earn more money to restrain their kids from child labor. Exploring new artisans and weavers. We encourage women to learn carpet weaving and share the work load with their male counterparts instead of involving kids. All our customers are allowed to directly inspect our factories and meet our weavers. We encourage unannounced inspections of our units. As an extra assurance , we also allow various nonprofit child welfare organizations to access our looms and factories. We educate consumers about rugs produced without the use of child labor We invite interior designers to recommend child-labor-free rugs for their clients. We encourage our importers to seek independent certification for child labor free carpets.
