CDG is a leading company which provides factory social compliance audit in India.
A social compliance audit, also known as a social audit, is an effective way to determine if an organization is complying with socially responsible principles.
Social compliance refers to how a company protects the health and safety as well as the rights of its employees, the community, and the environment where it operates in addition to the lives and communities of workers in its distribution chain and its supply chain. Social compliance also refers to an organization’s perspective on corporate social responsibility (CSR).
Social compliance audits, which are voluntary, are typically performed by independent social compliance auditors who conduct these audits on suppliers’ external facilities, such as factories and farms. Although social compliance audits may differ slightly depending on the industry, the requirements for each social compliance audit is typically the same. When conducting a social compliance audit, an auditor follows a social compliance audit checklist.
Let’s talk about the SA8000 requirements which cover 9 different areas of social accountability.
1.Child Labor
Upon arriving at the facility, one thing the auditor will check for is that all workers are above the age of 16 or the legal working age in the area.
2 .Forced or Compulsory Labor
The auditor will look for evidence that no documents like ID cards or passports are held without the ability of the worker to retrieve them.
3. Health and Safety
It is important that health and safety standards are being met, so the auditor will look for documentation of compliance with building safety requirements.
4. Freedom of Association
It is important to verify that the employer is respecting the right of all personnel to bargain collectively or, where collective bargaining is restricted, have access to alternate means.
5. Discrimination
Another important area of the audit focuses on discrimination, with checks to ensure that employer practices related to hiring, compensation, access to training, promotion, termination, or retirement are fair to everyone.
6. Disciplinary Practices
One of the goals of the audit is to determine whether employees at the facility are free from harassment as well as mental, physical, and verbal abuse.
7. Working Hours
Working hours are another important area covered by the audit. Are employees working regular and overtime hours in accordance with the law? Do they receive rest breaks?
8. Remuneration
It is important that employees are being paid fairly, so the auditor will conduct checks to see if the facility provides adequate wages.
9. Management System
The management system of the company is also reviewed to ensure that policies are in place for social accountability and subcontractors are being monitored for their practices as well.
When an organization receives its social compliance audit report, it may decide to share it with the public, whether the results of the social compliance audit are positive or negative. Then creating and sharing an action plan regarding its social compliance efforts to become a more socially conscious corporate citizen could enhance its public image.
