• Audits und Zertifikate

    Für Unternehmen ist es essentiell, über funktionierende Lieferanten zu verfügen, um auf dem internationalen Markt bestehen zu können. Auch wenn ein Unternehmen nicht die Fabriken besitzt, in denen die jeweiligen Produkte hergestellt werden, so hat es doch die Verantwortung, dass in der gesamten Wertschöpfungskette menschenwürdige Arbeitsbedingungen herrschen. Neben regulären Qualitätsüberprüfungen werden so genannte Sozialaudits immer wichtiger, um Transparenz im Bereich Arbeits- und Menschenrechte in der Lieferkette herzustellen. Audits müssen als Teil der Unternehmensstrategie angesehen werden und deren Durchführung vertraglich mit den Lieferanten geregelt sein.  more[...]
