Not all suppliers undergo auditing and those that do only go through 'Factory Auditing process.' However, only those suppliers that labelled high risk must complete this auditing. There is no comment on whether this auditing must be independent. There is also no criteria for what constitutes a high risk and also, what falls into 'factory auditing.'
There is no mention of on-site visits. There is no mention of other policies in place to continually monitor the compliance of suppliers.
Agreed
High risk suppliers are required to go through a 'factory audit process'. No other information given
