The SEDEX audit is an international instrument that assesses various aspects of a company’s ethical policies in its supply chain. Sedex audit makes information public and makes the business ensure that all the company’s procurement and operations are ethical. The Sedex audit is based on Sedex’s 4 pillar audit: Labor Standards and Health & Safety; Environment; and Business Ethics. We will focus on two of the most crucial Sedex pillars: Labour Standards and Health & Safety.
Both of these Sedex pillars can regarded as integral cornerstones of ethical business practices enhancing not only global conformity to standards, but socially responsible working conditions, and environments as well as promoting sustainable business practices across the international supply chain.
The Sedex 2-Pillar Audit focuses on two core areas: labor standards and health & safety, ensuring ethical practices in these crucial aspects of business operations.
Sedex Audits help businesses demonstrate their commitment to ethical practices, meet global supply chain requirements, and improve transparency with partners and clients.
Sedex Audits cover labor standards, health and safety, environmental management, and business ethics to ensure responsible sourcing and production practices.
Sedex focuses on ethical trade and is unique in its collaborative approach, allowing companies to share their audit results with multiple clients through a single Sedex platform.
A Sedex Audit report is typically valid for one year, after which a follow-up audit may be required to maintain compliance.
