Created in 1997 by Social Accountability International (SAI),a global non-governmental organization, the SA 8000 Standard has been guiding companies and organizations worldwide towards ethical business practices, ensuring the respect of fundamental rights for decent and fair work.
The SA 8000 Standard is based on internationally recognized standards of decent work, including the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, International Labour Organization (ILO) conventions, and national laws.
Adopting SA 8000 represents a real and tangible commitment to social sustainability and corporate ethics and creates a positive impact both within the organization and in the community as a whole.
