<strong>social audit</strong></h2> </div></div><div class="textBlock col-6 spacingSmall canvas canvasWhite" id="Intro"> <div class="wysiwyg" > <p style="text-align: justify;">SMETA audits, developed by Sedex, are essential tools for enhancing ethical practices within supply chains globally. As the world’s most widely used social audit, SMETA is designed to meticulously assess and address risks associated with unsafe working conditions, overworking, discrimination, inadequate compensation, and forced labour. Tailored to meet the diverse needs of businesses, SMETA offers both 2-pillar and 4-pillar audits, ensuring thorough compliance with international labour standards. This flexibility makes SMETA an invaluable resource for businesses committed to maintaining and improving ethical labor practices across their operations.</p> </div></div><div class="textBlock col-6 spacingSmall" id="intro-SMETA+2-pillar+audit%3a"> <div class="wysiwyg" > <h4 style="text-align: center;">SMETA 2 Pillar Audits</h4> <p style="text-align: left;">Focuses on Labour Standards and Health and Safety, ensuring safe working conditions and fair treatment. It also evaluates management systems, entitlement to work, subcontracting, homeworking, and includes a shortened environmental assessment.</p> </div></div><div class="textBlock col-6 spacingSmall" id="intr0-SMETA+4-pillar+audit%3a"> <div class="wysiwyg" > <h4 style="text-align: center;">SMETA 4 Pillar Audits</h4> <p style="text-align: justify;">Expands on the 2-pillar audit by including a full Environmental Assessment and Business Ethics, covering areas like waste management, pollution control, and anti-corruption measures. The 4-pillar audit provides a more comprehensive review of your supply chain's social and environmental responsibilities.</p> </div></div><div class="textBlock col-12 spacingSmall canvas canvasWhite" id="Intro2"> <div class="wysiwyg" > <h4 style="text-align: justify;">Why Choose SMETA Audits for Enhanced Social Responsibility?</h4> <p>Opting for SMETA audits is a strategic decision for businesses aiming to uphold and enhance ethical practices within their supply chains. These audits systematically evaluate compliance with Labour standards, health and safety regulations, environmental policies, and business ethics, ensuring a holistic approach to social responsibility. By adopting SMETA's comprehensive audit framework, organisations not only demonstrate their commitment to fair and sustainable practices but also align with international norms and consumer expectations for ethical operations. This proactive approach not only mitigates risks but also strengthens stakeholder trust and corporate reputation, making SMETA audits an essential component of responsible business strategies.</p> <p>Conducting over 25,000 social and environmental audits per year, LRQA has been a member of the Sedex Associate Auditor Group for more than twelve years. LRQA has been awarded the Sedex Responsible Business award – the only audit firm to receive the honour, the only company to have received the award twice.</p> <p> </p> <h4>SMETA Certification: Ensuring Ethical Excellence</h4> <p>SMETA certification provides businesses with a globally recognized standard to showcase their commitment to ethical and responsible practices. By achieving certification, organisations demonstrate compliance with international labour laws, health and safety standards, environmental sustainability goals, and business ethics.
