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.
