dc.description.abstractLeather, which has an important role in the world economy, is among the most exported products with its commercial value. Safety and health problems in leather production in tanneries have been the subject of many studies. The international ISO 45001-Occupational safety and health (OSH) Management System and 14001-Environmental Management System, which were established without sectoral discrimination, were insufficient for tanneries and the Leather Working Group (LWG) was established in 2005. Established to identify and promote best practices in occupational safety and health, environmental, social, and chemical management for leather producers, LWG has a significant weight in the world. Unlike local legislation and known standards, the LWG protocol has established an audit mechanism by setting specific requirements for tanneries, especially on occupational safety and health and the environment. In 2021, the Sustainable Leather Foundation (SLF) was established based on the concept of applying ESG (environmental, social, and governance) sustainability across the entire leather industry, which is gradually gaining attention in the leather industry today. SFL, which is inclusive of other audit standards, including LWG and has a broader perspective, works with many other organizations in both the private and public sectors around the world to develop comprehensive ESG best-practices throughout the entire supply chain. In this part of the book; it is aimed to introduce the LWG and SLF protocols and applications that guide occupational safety and health, environmental and chemical management practices in the leather production sector. © 2023 Nova Science Publishers, Inc.
