Need to demonstrate your commitment to ethical business practices? The SMETA 4 Pillar Audit Checklist provides a comprehensive framework for assessing compliance across labor standards, health and safety, environmental performance, and business ethics. Unlike the basic 2-pillar version, this template includes the extended environmental assessment and business ethics components required by many major retailers and brands.
You’ll systematically evaluate everything from fair wages and working conditions to waste management and anti-corruption measures. With ethical sourcing becoming increasingly important to European consumers, this template helps you identify improvement areas while building trust with stakeholders and opening doors to partnerships with major companies.
