CODE OF CONDUCT New Wave Group ’ s Code of Conduct is a policy which contains requirements such as minimum wage , working hours , prohibition of child labor and several other requirements from the ILO Conventions and the UN Declaration of Human Rights .
The Code of Conduct summarizes what we expect from our suppliers when it comes to social and environmental responsibility . We have adopted the Code of Conduct of amfori BSCI ( Business Social Compliance Initiative ), where New Wave Group is a member . Companies all over the world are working together , using the same Code of Conduct , meaning that more than 2 500 companies have adopted the code . Together we reach out to approximately 40 000 unique suppliers worldwide . As a member of amfori BSCI , New Wave Group is obliged to implement and follow up the Code of Conduct through third-party audits of our suppliers .
THIRD-PARTY AUDITS In addition to internal audits , the monitoring of the Code of Conduct is made through third party audits .
