At Insite we offer a variety of social compliance services that deliver cost-effective, yet comprehensive solutions to fit the individual compliance needs of companies - needs that go beyond auditing alone.

Some of our social compliance and added-value support services include:

Social Audits
Social audits are  performed against  local legal regulations and the compliance standards set forth by our client or Insite. Audits incorporate International Labor Organization (ILO) standards, United Nation conventions, regional laws and regulations, as well as information gathered from local NGOs.

Typical areas of focus of a social audit are:  

Child Labor
Disciplinary Practices
Discrimination
Environment
Forced Labor
Freedom of Association
Health and Safety
Working Hours

Assessments
Assessments are not as comprehensive as capacity-building projects, but they go one step beyond  audits,  provide more insight into the compliance standing of a given supplier and  are more scalable.  For more information on our assessment service please go to our Supplier Initiatives page.

Brand Collaboration Management
Brands collaborating in their social compliance efforts are one of the key steps in the advancement of impactful, results-driven compliance. Brand collaboration reduces costs and time on brands and suppliers which frees up resources, thereby enabling brands to engage in more meaningful enhancement (capacity building) projects. Insite can manage all or a portion of the brand collaboration process, from the initial strategic development to identifying, partnering with, and facilitating the working relationship between companies, which includes aligning companies’ compliance initiatives and managing the execution of the collaborative audits and/or assessments.

Vendor & Licensee Program Management
Managing a vendor & licensee compliance program can be a costly and time-consuming activity that often draws heavily upon a company's internal resources. The Insite management team has the knowledge, experience and resources needed to streamline this process, making it a successful cost and time efficient enterprise. Insite can support your company in managing an existing brand driven vendor program, or collaborate in building a sustainable vendor driven program.

Program Management
Companies can transfer a segment of – or entirely outsource - the management of their program to Insite's experienced compliance managers. Our dedicated team's scope of work is defined by your company's unique requirements; requirements that can extend beyond basic account management. From providing administrative support to advising business and budgetary decisions, we will become an extension of your program to the level that meets your specialized needs.

Corporate Seminars
Our goal is to deliver the ‘what, why and how’ solutions to key influential parties within your company. Our seminars address how the decisions your employees make in their jobs on a day-to-day basis can impact the success of the company’s compliance program, as well as providing tools for reducing departmental silos that prevent socially responsible objectives from influencing other business goals.
