		<description>• TJX operates nearly 2,100 retail stores under the names Marshall&#039;s, TJ Maxx, HomeGoods and A.J. Wright throughout the US, Canada, and the UK.

• Shareholders and activists have pressured TJX to improve its response to calls for more transparency about the sourcing of its gold and diamonds, but little has been accomplished thus far.

• It may be inexpensive to shop at TJX’s discount stores but the company&#039;s ethics and sourcing practices make it money not worth saving. The company has been criticized for lack of transparency, low wages for its factory workers, and improperly categorizing some employees as exempt from overtime pay.

• Use Go Green to take action with the No Dirty Gold campaign to call for more transparency from TJX Companies.</description>
