According to the report, facilities implementing the SLCP’s Converged Assessment Framework (CAF) consecutively reported a dip in national and international labour standards’ violations.
The CAF’s design allows facilities to distribute their assessment data to various stakeholders, eliminating the need for multiple audits. This efficiency resulted in a potential savings of $39m in 2024, marking a 39% increase from the previous year. These funds are earmarked for enhancing workplace conditions.
The frequency of SLCP assessment sharing has risen, with each assessment being distributed nearly three times on average, a 16% increase from 2023.
Data suggests that sustained application of the CAF aids facilities in pinpointing and diminishing legal non-compliances, fostering improvements in the workplace environment.
The CAF’s growing use and refinements to the Data Collection Tool have allowed SLCP to derive more insights from aggregate facility data. Notably, the framework now integrates more detailed gender-related data points, underscoring the capability of SLCP data to discern trends and influence policy development.
Don’t let policy changes catch you off guard. Stay proactive with real-time data and expert analysis.
