Information on SEDEX
SMETA (SEDEX MEMBERS ETHICAL TRADE AUDIT) is an ethical audit format used across the world for ensuring that the Suppliers, Client dealing with, are working in ethical approach. SMETA is introduced by “SEDEX STAKEHOLDER FORUM”.  SMETA is not a Code of Conduct or Certification Audit. This is conducted as per ETI base code.
SMETA is invented to bring down repetition of work in ethical business auditing, useful to retailers, brands and interested parties. Suppliers can represent themselves with various customers with one SMETA, instead of facing separate audit for each customer.

SMETA focuses on Ethical Trading Initiative and Local Laws as a gauge tool. It contains following four measures
