These management procedures identify how the company is putting its policies into action. It is important for a company to have procedures that apply to their suppliers and own employees. This shows that they are working to uphold their commitments to human rights, social impacts and environmental protection and that the company takes some steps to improve practises across the company and/or the supply chain.

A note on the scoring system

Wikirate has a standardised 10-point scoring system making it possible to compare company scores across different benchmarks. On Wikirate.org, the Fashion Transparency Index scoring system, where each company can get a maximum of 250 points, has been converted to the 10-point scoring system - with 10 being the highest a company can score and 0 being the lowest. These company scores can also be translated to percentages e.g. if a company has scored 2.5 out of 10 on Wikirate, they have achieved 25% of the 250 points in the Fashion Transparency Index.
