The BSCI Factory Audit refers to the social responsibility audit conducted by the Business Social Compliance Initiative (BSCI) on the global suppliers of BSCI member organizations. It primarily covers: compliance with laws, freedom of association and collective bargaining rights, prohibition of discrimination, compensation, working hours, workplace safety, prohibition of child labor, prohibition of forced labor, and environmental and safety issues.
A BSCI certification can cater to various clients, reduce the need for dual audits by foreign customers of suppliers, save costs; establish international credibility and enhance corporate image; foster positive consumer sentiment towards products; solidify partnerships with buyers, and expand into new markets.
