Attestation of suppliers of retail chains by the BSCI Code (Business Social Compliance Initiative)
The BSCI Code of Conduct is based on the most important international Conventions protecting the workers’ rights such as the International Labour Organisation (ILO) Conventions and other important Declarations of the United Nations, the OECD guidelines for multinational enterprises and the UN Global Compact.
The BSCI Code includes the ten following key elements to improve the worker´s situation:
- freedom of association and the right to collective bargaining are respected
- no discrimination is practised
- child labour is prohibited
- legal minimum and/or industry standards wages are paid
- working hours are compliant with national laws and do not exceed 48 hours regular + 12 hours overtime
- there is no forced labour and disciplinary measures
- the workplace is safe and healthy
- the environment is respected
- there is a policy for social accountability
- there is an anti-bribery and anti-corruption policy
The members are requested to adopt and disseminate the BSCI Code of Conduct both internally and in their supply chain to inform employees and suppliers about the company’s dedication to social compliance and the BSCI development approach. This step ensures that all parties in the company and its supply chain are informed about their responsibility in the process. In doing so BSCI Members express their wish to do business with suppliers who take social responsibility seriously.
