Supplier due diligence
How we screen, audit and monitor suppliers across Poland and the wider supply chain for ESG and human-rights risks.
What we cover
Three-tier due diligence framework: (1) onboarding screen — SA8000 / amfori BSCI / Sedex SMETA, country-risk index, sanctions check; (2) annual audit — independent third-party site visit, worker interviews; (3) continuous monitoring — incident tracking, grievance channel, corrective action plan (CAP) follow-up.
Methodology
OECD Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Business Conduct is our baseline framework. CSDDD-ready (Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive). Risk-based prioritisation: high-risk geographies (cotton, dye) audited annually; medium risk biennially. SAQ (Self-Assessment Questionnaire) renewed every 12 months. Public CAP closure rate: 94% within 6 months.
Reporting and compliance — Poland
Reporting cadence: annual sustainability disclosure aligned with CSRD/ESRS, GRI Standards, CDP Climate Change. Country-specific compliance for Poland: VAT 23% invoicing context applies to operations; sustainability disclosures published in English and PL. Warszawa hub serves as primary reporting boundary for Poland.
