VERIFICATION验证
While company commitments to ethical practices are important, such claims usually only gain credibility when verified by a third party. This is where FWF comes in. FWF’s multi-stakeholder make-up means that it is independent and credible. In order to gain real insight into company performance, FWF’s verification system exists at three levels: FWF verifies at factory level and implements a complaints procedure in all countries where it is active to serve as a safety net. Finally, FWF also verifies at the company level to check whether companies implement the FWF Code of Labour Practices in their management systems effectively.
虽然公司对道德实践的承诺是重要的,但此类索赔通常在第三方验证时才获得可信度。这就是FWF进来的地方。FWF的多利益相关者组成意味着它是独立的和可信的。为了获得对公司绩效的真正洞察力,FWF的验证系统存在于三个层次:FWF在工厂级进行验证,并在所有活跃的国家作为一个安全网来实施一个投诉程序。最后,FWF也在公司层面验证了公司是否有效地实施了FWF管理体系中的劳工实践代码。
TRANSPARENCY透明性
Accountability should lie at the heart of any initiative seeking to improve conditions in supply chains, and transparency is an important component of accountability.问责制应该是任何寻求改善供应链条件的主动权的核心,透明度是问责制的重要组成部分。
For full accountability in supply chains, transparency is necessary at three key levels: the workplace, the company, and the organisation.对于供应链中的完全问责,透明化在三个关键层面是必要的:工作场所、公司和组织。
Transparency is essential for accountability and credibility. Yet it is also a challenge for garment and textile companies, who consider their competitive advantage to lie partially in their unique supply chain decisions – for example, where they are placing orders, prices paid, forecasting, etc. Indeed, transparency often can be among the most difficult FWF requirements for member companies.透明度对问责制和信誉至关重要。然而,对于服装和纺织企业来说,这也是一个挑战,他们认为自己的竞争优势部分地在于其独特的供应链决策——例如,在订单、价格支付、预测等方面,透明度往往是最困难的FW之一。F对会员公司的要求。
But some pioneering companies are beginning to break this mould. CSR leaders now commonly report their factory lists, audit outcomes, and other data. There is still a lot to do in this regard, however. FWF continues to work with member companies to balance transparency and business confidentiality, while enhancing accountability in supply chains.
但一些创业公司正开始打破这种模式。CSR领导人现在通常报告他们的工厂列表、审计结果和其他数据。然而,在这方面还有很多事情要做。FWF继续与成员公司合作,以平衡透明度和业务机密性,同时增强供应链中的责任。
