amfori
amfori BSCI - Business Social Compliance Initiative
A social audit programme assessing a facility against a code of conduct, structured as 81 questions across 13 Performance Areas. An audit programme rather than a published product or material standard. What is assessed is the facility and its labour conditions, and the output is a certificate or rating on the site.

What this standard is for
Where it is used
Widely required by European retailers and often the audit a supplier is asked for before any certification is discussed.
What to watch for
The criteria are not publicly readable. amfori's site is a JavaScript application whose document routes do not resolve for an ordinary client, and the code of conduct itself could not be retrieved - so unlike every other record in this register, a supplier cannot read the requirements in advance from the publisher. The 13 Performance Areas and 81 questions come from the one guide amfori does publish openly, on audit ratings. No version is stated for either.
