BSCI - Business Social Compliance Initiative
BACKTEE is a member of BSCI, an international control and education system.
Through BSCI, BACKTEE takes responsibility for the conditions under which our products are produced.
BACKTEE’s products are produced in many different places in the world – also in so-called risk-countries. This refers to countries where it is found that there is a larger risk of challenges with for example working conditions. It is therefore one of the areas in which BACKTEE has focus on CSR.
Responsibility in supply chain
BSCI is an international supply chain management-system that secures responsibility in the supply chain in risk-countries.
As a member of BSCI, BACKTEE has joined in on a common Code of Conduct – which means a common set of rules with a list of specific demands for the suppliers. The Code of Conduct consists of 11 principles for an ethical and social responsible way of doing business. Among other things, child labour, forced labour and corruption is prohibited and demands are also made related to security, decent working hours and that the employees on the factories have the right to be a member of a union.
