Beyond monetary benefits, the ultimate goal is to ensure that employees work in safe conditions that comply with environmental regulations Describe short and long term environmental impact: Short and long term: part of improving the electronics supply chain is considering the full lifecycle. It s not only about producing new phones; it s also about finding better ways to deal with electronics that have reached the end of their lifespan. The fairphones are just starting their lives, so the first recycling efforts will focus on other phones already in circulation. For every Fairphone sold, 3 is reserved for setting up projects in countries where safe e-waste recycling is not yet facilitated Describe short and long term social impact: Short and long term: from the mines to the factories, every worker involved in creating this smartphone has to earn a fair wage. The ultimate social goal is to ensure that employees work in safe conditions that comply with environmental regulations. For the first fairphone, they have focused on the factory in China, including creating a fund to improve worker s wages and working conditions and open discussions between workers and their employers Describe short and long term economical impact: Short and long term: the goal is an economy based on values, meaning and sharing, not just cold hard cash.
4 3.5. What are the best aspects of this Good practice? - Fair and conflict-free resources - Fair wages - E-waste solutions - Transparent pricing 3.6. What should be altered / improved? Ultimately the goals are to reduce e-waste globally and re-integrate as much recycled material in the electronics supply chain as possible to promote and facilitate a circular designed economy. 4. Transferability criteria: 4.1. Can this Good practice be transferred to other communities / regions / countries? If so, describe. This good practice can be transferred to other countries. Reducing the e-waste and recycling materials in the electronics supply chain is a challenge that all countries have to face Can this Good practice be transferred to other sectors? If so, describe.
