Certification to SA8000: Certification is the process by which facilities submit to an independent audit against the SA8000 Standard. If a facility meets the Standard, it will earn a certificate attesting to its social accountability policies, management, and operations. Companies that operate production facilities can seek to have individual facilities certified to SA8000 through audits by one of the accredited certification bodies. SA8000 certification is conducted by organizations accredited and overseen by Social Accountability Accreditation Services (SAAS). Please visit the SAAS certification page for further information on this process. Both certified and accredited organizations undergo semi-annual review and revisits.
For an overview and complete list of SA8000 Certified Facilities please visit the SAAS Certified Facilities page.
