Associations
The state associations are the regional employers' associations in the textile and clothing industry. Their demarcation is based on the boundaries of the tariff districts . They advise and support their members primarily in social and collective bargaining issues. The professional associations represent the interests of their member companies depending on the production stages or end products. They do not have the function of employers' associations.
