Sedex does not govern how often sites should accept social audits, however buyer members typically need sites to follow ‘audit cycles’ depending upon the risk factor involved. For uniformity, Sedex members are recommending the below approach to audit recurrence:
No Grading / Marks:
Issues:
- Critical Issues ——- Follow up
- Major Issues ——– Follow up
- Minor Issues —— Desktop
Verification Method:
- Desktop
- Follow up
( Critical issues, such child labor , forced labor , discrimination , physical and / or verbal abuse)
