Social compliances
Introduction
Social compliance refers to the adherence of individuals, organizations, and businesses to ethical and socially responsible standards. These standards typically encompass various aspects of social, labor, and environmental practices that ensure fair treatment of workers, protection of human rights, and sustainable business operations.
Social compliance aims to address issues such as child labor, forced labor, discrimination, workplace safety, fair wages, working hours, and environmental impact. By adhering to social compliance standards, companies demonstrate their commitment to responsible business practices and the well-being of their workers, communities, and the environment.
Our Services:
Information Consultants conduct on-site inspections of workplaces, factories, and facilities to assess their compliance with established social standards. These audits may cover aspects such as child labor, forced labor, working hours, wages, health and safety, discrimination, and freedom of association.

Information Consultants review relevant policies, procedures, records, and other documentation to verify compliance with social and labor standards.
Information Consultants identify gaps and weaknesses in an organization’s social compliance efforts and provide recommendations for improvement.
