Why You Should Attend

The Evolution of Responsible Sourcing and Supply Chain Audit

Companies are currently dealing with growing consumer expectations which drives a greater need for responsible sourcing and supply chain audit. Many companies have not properly mapped out their supply chain and because of this, third party suppliers are able to get away with unsafe conditions and illegal practices with regards to employees and the environment. The responsible sourcing process brings large challenges that require external partnerships and C suite assistance. This course is designed to help practitioners implement ethical and responsible auditing procedures and protocols that mitigate financial and reputational risk.
