Committed to Accountability
Food safety goes beyond the food itself; it’s also about the social practices of those working to deliver safe food to your dinner table. The Social Accountability Audit helps by identifying key areas for assessing the social practices being implemented by organizations at the ground level.
Flexibility
Organizations have the flexibility to use this audit in conjunction with a PrimusGFS audit, or as a stand alone audit. It does not have to be used solely by PrimusGFS certified operations.
Communication
Helps to improve communication and alleviate concerns between management and workers. This also enables buyers and suppliers to work together to address any issues found during the audit.
Transparency
The information gathered from this audit can help your company showcase your strengths and weaknesses, allowing you to raise your standing among suppliers and buyers.
Integrated Solution
The Social Accountability Audits are uploaded by the Certification Bodies into our Azzule Auditing Software which are then transferred to the auditee’s Azzule Supply Chain account. The integration of our services allows for a seamless transfer of data, helping alleviate the burden from our users.
