Webinar: Understanding SEDEX Virtual Assessment

CONTEXT:
SEDEX has introduced Sedex Virtual Assessment (SVA), a solution to provide remote assessments of sites and workplaces. Sedex Virtual Assessment is aligned with SMETA, aiming to provide as much insight into working conditions at a site as possible. Following a thorough planning stage, auditors lead a virtual site tour through the use of video technology, as well as an examination of the site’s management systems and documentation. Not all of Sedex’s Affiliate Audit Companies (AACs) are authorized to conduct Sedex Virtual Assessments. Bureau Veritas is one of the first and limited AACs approved by SEDEX to start supporting industries through this SEDEX Virtual Assessment.

AGENDA:
• How current SMETA audits are affected since February 2020
• The need for a Virtual Assessment
• Key Stages of the Sedex Virtual Assessment
• Essential Parameters to be met
• How to book with Bureau Veritas

KEY OBJECTIVES :
• Understand the key criteria of SVA and the value when an on-site audit cannot be performed

DESIGNED FOR:
• Anyone involved in the planning, implementing, maintaining, supervising, Ethical and social compliance procedures
• Those with an interest in Ethical sourcing
