Decent working conditions in global supply chains
The Social and Labor Convergence Program (SLCP) is a multi-stakeholder initiative committed to improving working conditions in global supply chains. SLCP addresses the burden of redundant and resource-intensive social audits by offering a streamlined solution.
SLCP’s universal social assessment tool, the Converged Assessment Framework (CAF), provides credible and actionable data, enabling stakeholders to redirect resources towards meaningful improvements.
What are the benefits of SLCP?
Efficient
Comprehensive
Credible
Flexible
Facility Owned
The Converged Assessment Framework (CAF) process consists of three stages:
1. Data collection
Facilities use the CAF to answer questions on various social and labor compliance topics.
2. Data verification
SLCP approved Verifiers verify facility answers following a robust verification methodology.
3. Data sharing
Facilities control how they share their assessment data with multiple end users – such as companies, brands and retailers – through a unique and secure system designed to minimize audit fatigue.
