BSCI factory inspection refers to BSCI (Business Social Compliance Initiative), which advocates that the business community abide by the social responsibility organization's social responsibility audit of global suppliers of BSCI members, including: compliance with the law, freedom of association and collective bargaining rights, prohibition of discrimination, compensation, working hours, workplace safety, etc. Prohibition of the use of child labour, prohibition of forced labour, environment and safety.


Through BSCI certification, we can deal with different customers, reduce the second-party audit of suppliers by foreign customers, save costs; establish international credibility, improve the image of enterprises; make consumers establish positive feelings for products; stabilize cooperation with purchasers, and expand new markets.
