Business Social Compliance Initiative (BSCI) is the common European platform of retailers, industry and importing companies for monitoring and improving social standards in supplier countries for all consumer goods. The BSCI is based on the labour standards of the International Labour Organization (ILO) and other important international regulations like the UN Charter for Human Rights, as well as on national regulations.
The Initiative aims at continuously improving the social performance of suppliers, leading to Best Practice like SA8000 certification or equivalents, and thus sustainably enhancing working conditions in factories.
Benefits of BSCI:
- Saves cost and time through prevention of multiple auditing
- Better worker conditions resulting in a highly motivated workforce and higher quality products.
- Continual improvement and better Supply Chain Management.
- Operating costs drop as penalties due to non-compliance and rework reduce and efficiencies increase.
- Customers, employees, stockholders, regulators and competitors develop sustainable respect for an organization which demonstrates its proactive commitment to a humane workplace.
