The SLCP provides the tools and systems to measure working conditions in global supply chains. The multi-stakeholder initiative, which includes hundreds of large brands/retailers, manufacturers and service providers, shares data and replaces repetitive social audits.
The Converged Assessment Framework (CAF) supports stakeholder efforts to improve working conditions throughout global supply chains, providing one assessment for everything. Developed by SLCP signatories, the CAF measures facility working conditions and consists of a data collection tool, verification protocol and verifier guidance. The framework is high-quality, agnostic and makes no value judgments.
As an SLCP-accredited Verifying Body, we can provide SLCP verification to help you measure working conditions in global supply chains.
As a result of SLCP verification from us, you will be able to:
We have been involved with the SLCP since its inception in 2015 and supported the benchmark efforts that form the basis of the current CAF.
We are a founding and full member of the leading industry association, the Association of Professional Social Compliance Auditors (APSCA). We have a global network of more than 800 experienced APSCA-enrolled auditors, in over 60 countries, available to support your SLCP verification needs.
As an SLCP-accredited Verifying Body, we are authorized to use the CAF to conduct SLCP verifications. Our verifiers can conduct verifications via the Accredited Host – Higg Facility Social & Labor Module (FSLM) – once selected as your Verifying Body on the Accredited Host and your self-assessment is complete.
We are also an Approved Verifying Body for the Higg Facility Environmental Module (FEM) and Higg Brand and Retail Module (BRM).
