SA 8000 Consulting Solutions | Social Accountability Consultant

Be it a SA 8000 Consulting or any other Social Accountability Consulting, the basic methodology remains almost the same. However, we understand the uniqueness of each project; and so we customise each of them based on the mutually agreed plan.

As an SA 8000 consultant, we conduct an initial gap assessment to understand the level of alignment of your existing system and the requirements of the SA 8000 standard. This will reduce the rework for designing something if your existing system already has that.

A report based on gap assessment will indicate the compliance level of the organisation against national legal requirements & that in SA 8000 standard
