Certification in accordance with the requirements of SA 8000

Many enterprises introduce their Quality Management Systems as per the requirements of the ISO 9001:2000 standard. Meanwhile it becomes necessary to introduce the Environmental Management System as per the requirements of the ISO 14001:1996 standards and the Occupational Safety Management System as per the requirements of the OHSAS 18001:1999 standards, as part of the customers’ requirements. Many company managers have already started with the introduction of these systems but only a few of them are prepared to meet the new requirements for social responsibility of enterprises, as stipulated in SA 8000:1997.
Leading companies in the world have for many years believed that reliable partners may only be those companies that act ethically in relation to society as a whole and in particular in relation to their collaborators, and when they treat them with respect and provide them with the necessary working conditions.
Standard SA 8000 “Social responsibility” was developed in order for enterprises to be able to reaffirm their social responsibilities in performing their businesses.
