Summary: UEBT protocol for audits of supply chains in high-risk conditions

 
 

Many cultivated and wild harvested raw materials are sourced from supply chains that frequently have high-risk conditions with respect to some of or all UEBT’s principles of ethical sourcing found in the UEBT standard.

To address these challenges, UEBT has a Protocol for Audits of Supply Chains in High-Risk Conditions, which supplements the UEBT Requirements and Obligations for Qualified Certification Bodies and in which UEBT establishes the requirements for auditing natural raw materials supply chains that face risks to people or biodiversity. The protocol applies to all certification audits, as well as verification assessments, that involve supply chains determined by UEBT to be in high-risk conditions.
