What is BSCI?
BSCI stands for Business Social Compliance Initiative. The organisation is based in Brussels, Belgium. It is a standardisation scheme that monitors how closely producing and supplying organisations align with the social requirements of the countries where they operate.
BSCI is a leading business-driven initiative that supports retailers, importers, and brands in improving working conditions across global supplier factories and farms. Its purpose is to improve working conditions across the supply chain and to respond to the demand for transparency on how goods are produced.
Social-responsibility standards like BSCI have emerged to make global trade more sustainable. Major companies and brands want to put their production and sourcing on a stable, long-term footing and to source from suppliers that can consistently deliver under the right conditions. The initiative is run by amfori (formerly FTA) and counts hundreds of major brands and companies among its members worldwide.
