BSCI (Business Social Compliance Initiative)

What is BSCI?
BSCI is an initiative that helps companies ensure fair and equitable working conditions, respect for human rights, and compliance with laws.
Why amfori BSCI?
A large number of international companies expect their suppliers to confirm compliance with ethical and social standards through BSCI audit. By implementing this standard, companies reduce risks associated with labor law violations, ensure safe working conditions, and promote fair business practices, thereby protecting their reputation and meeting consumer expectations for responsible production.
Advantages of implementation:
- Improvement of working conditions for employees;
- Reduction of risks related to labor law violations;
- Greater trust from business partners.
What is the result of the audit - certificate or report?
After successful implementation and audit, companies receive an audit report showing compliance with BSCI requirements.
Evaluation system:
The evaluation system ranges from A to E. For grades A and B, the report is valid for 2 years. In the case of grades C, D, or E, a follow-up audit must be conducted no later than one year after the initial audit for the report to remain valid.
Registration on the platform:
To conduct a BSCI audit, registration on the amfori platform is necessary.
Core elements:
- Social Management System and Cascade Effect;
- Workers Involvement and Protection;
- The Rights of Freedom of Association and Collective Bargaining;
