What is SA 8000?

SA 8000 (Social Accountability 8000) is an auditable certification standard established to encourage organizations to adopt fair and ethical practices in the workplace. It was developed based on conventions of the International Labour Organization (ILO), Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child.

This standard serves as a benchmark for measuring an organization’s commitment to social responsibility and labor welfare, ensuring a safe, equitable, and dignified work environment for all employees.

  1. Child Labour – Ensuring no use or support of child labor in operations or supply chain.

  2. Forced or Compulsory Labour – Prohibiting the use of any form of forced labor.

  3. Health and Safety – Maintaining safe and healthy working conditions.

  4. Freedom of Association and Collective Bargaining – Respecting employees’ rights to organize and negotiate.

  5. Discrimination – Preventing discrimination in hiring, compensation, and employment practices.
