SAI works to protect the integrity of workers
around the world by building local capacity and developing systems of
accountability through socially responsible standards. SAI established one of
the world's preeminent social standards—the SA8000® Standard for decent work, a
tool for implementing international labor standards that is being used in over
3,700 factories, across 69 countries and 65 industrial sectors. Many more
workplaces are involved in programs using SA8000 and SAI programs as guides for
improvement. SAI is one of the world's leading social compliance training
organizations, having provided training to over 30,000 people, including
factory and farm managers, workers, brand compliance officers, auditors, labor
inspectors, trade union representatives and other worker rights advocates.
The SA8000 Standard is the central document of
our work at SAI. It is one of the world’s first auditable social certification
standards for decent workplaces, across all industrial sectors. It is based on
the UN Declaration of Human Rights, conventions of the ILO, UN and national
law, and spans industry and corporate codes to create a common language to
measure social performance.
