Our Network
Our mission is to fully leverage the power of people who work with us. Establishing relationships with a plethora of perspectives around the world has been invaluable to our approaches to the hair industry.
Human Relationships & Connections
Our focus is on product, but more importantly, human relationships. We know our employees and the people who work with us. We appreciate their qualities, talents and passions, and believe that it is our responsibility to help each other grow and evolve. We surround ourselves with people who have different backgrounds, opinions, talents, and perspectives so that we can come together and create utilizing the minds of many.
Our Response To Covid 19
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, one of our top priorities is the well-being of our customers, our communities and our team. This has been a challenging time, but we made sure to take a step back and see what improvements we could make in all areas of our business.
Our Office & Warehouse
We have employees work from home to limit the amount of opportunities for any virus to spread. Early on during this pandemic, masks, curbside pickups, hand sanitizer, and office restructuring were implemented and distributed to ensure that safety was the #1 priority.
Our Factories
At the factory, employees were/are asked to submit health information forms daily and undergo temperature checks before they are allowed to enter the facilities. Everyone who enters the factory must go through a disinfectant process and must wear medical masks and gloves. Due to early mask shortages, we were able to help send masks overseas.
Luckily, investments were made in improved ventilation equipment in 2018 providing healthier air circulation. Personal protective equipment and disinfection equipment have been installed in all of the workspaces.
Our Network And Communities
The individuals and businesses who work with us matters now more than ever. We believe that supporting each other during this challenging time and that sacrifices will help everyone in the long run. Here are a few intiatives we offered:
- During the COVID-19 pandemic, we offered 50% off shipping for all orders.
- 100% of January and February proceeds from our hair care line Remi® Revitalize were used to help with supplying medical items to clients, salons, families, and employees.
- Over 1200 N95 certified masks were shipped to clients, families, and hospitals in need across three continents.
- The Bohyme® Assistance Plan (BAP) was established. Clients who placed orders between March 23, 2020 and April 7, 2020 were provided credits back to their account to help them recover.
- Giveaway campaigns on our social media platforms are ongoing to spread some positivity and some free hair extensions to distract everyone’s minds from COVID-19.
Finding Beauty in Kindness
We celebrate any type of opportunity to help others and support those who are doing selfless acts. We are honored by the fact that we have been able to support families within our communities and have made contributions to charities around the world. We’ve met incredible stylists who are doing pro-bono work and using their talents to help others.
Promoting Growth
and Development
We believe that by helping our employees grow as professionals, we grow as a company. We see their strength, we recognize their talents and we always support them to achieve their career aspirations.
Employee Engagement
We maintain an open and ongoing dialogue with our employees in order to make Fashion World better place to work. We seek employee feedback through formal and informal touchpoints, including surveys annual reviews. We uncover aspirations and identify relevant developmental experiences to support continued growth. We encourage employees to take the lead in identifying their individual career goals and development opportunities. We engage our employees through variety of onsite events, including company dinners, charity works, like packing foods with “Feed My Starving Children” Organization, or team outings to places like escape room.
Education
We created a modern approach to educate our current and new employees about company, it’s culture and products, by providing internal platform and peer-to-peer social learning, mentoring and learning from others across Fashion World. We support career development and growth by sponsoring additional trainings and courses.
Performance Management Process
We created our performance management process to provide a structured approach to employee evaluation and to identify opportunities for our employees to excel in their careers. This process help employees and managers identify strengths and areas for growth, while also review their performance.
Respecting Human Rights
Poor labor practices to get cheaper hair are very well know in hair extensions industry. We will never work with anyone who is willing to sacrifice the quality of human life over a larger profit. We believe that respecting international human rights laws and standards is fundamental to our work as a responsible company. We own and operate our own manufacturing facilities, as well as we have long term relationships with other factories. Fashion World Ent., believes in fair trade practices honoring fair wages and clean working environments. We make sure that everyone who is taking part in hair creation process, in both China and Korea, is treated fairly and they work in clean, ventilated areas. 60% of employees are female, 40% male and their age range from 18 to 50 years old. Working hours are from 8:00am to 5:00pm with 1 hour lunch break as well as 2x 30 minute breaks. To make sure that all working conditions and human rights are being respected in all facilities, we work with third-party auditors to evaluate factors like fair wages, labor conditions, reasonable hours, and a safe work environment. Inspections are performed twice a year. In 2012 our factory received Work Safety Standardization Certificate and a Quality Management System Certificate.
