GRI 414 : Supplier Social Assessment 2016
3-3 Management Approach 414
The assessment of social aspects of supplies is a challenge , not just for us but for the entire industry . All suppliers acknowledge the Code of Conduct as part of the Business Agreement and an assessment of social aspects must be done before the first purchase order . The assessment is done either through self-assessment , an internal audit or a third-party audit ( amfori BSCI or equivalent ). Our goal is to include all our suppliers located in risk countries in amfori BSCI or an equal monitoring system .
