Discover our Sedex services
Retailers, brands and customers are increasingly concerned that their goods are manufactured in a way that ensures fair treatment for all workers involved in their production supply chain. One way companies can get assurance about their suppliers’ performance is by requesting a third-party Sedex Members Ethical Trade Audit (SMETA) to report on processes and the situation.
The benefits include:
- SMETA audit reports reduce supply chain audit duplication by providing a widely accepted single format for social compliance audits
- SMETA audit reports are uploaded to the Sedex Advance platform, enabling members to effectively share and manage ethical supply chain information
- Reduce social responsibility and sustainability risks in supply chains
- Identify weak areas for companies to implement corrective actions that drive improvement and mitigate risk
- When it is impossible for auditors to visit a site, SGS can deliver a Sedex Virtual Assessment (SVA)
