About SMETA: A Globally Recognized Audit Standard for Ethical Trade and Sustainable Supply Chains
Developed by Sedex, a non-profit global membership organization, SMETA is one of the most widely used social responsibility audit methods in the world. Its core value lies in standardizing ethical behaviors in the supply chain through a unified audit standard, covering four core pillars (4-Pillar Audit) of labor standards, health and safety, environmental management, and business ethics. It comprehensively evaluates an enterprise's ability to fulfill social responsibilities from multiple dimensions, including free employment, working hours and wages, fire protection, waste disposal, anti-corruption, and data privacy protection.
Different from traditional audits, SMETA certification reports can be uploaded to the Sedex platform for sharing with multiple customers, effectively reducing the time and cost losses caused by repeated audits.
