Guidance on Communicating Objectives and Standards Across the Supply Chain
Show Description
Tool 7: Effective communication and training on Code of Conduct standards represent a key building block for successful adoption of social responsibility practices by all supply chain actors, from the coffee bean producer to the coffee retailer. The need for straightforward information on what is required of supply chain partners and their workers is often underestimated. This is even more the case with building the knowhow and technical skills to implement both Code of Conduct and legal requirements, including mitigating risks to workers and remediating issues that arise. |

Guidelines on Monitoring of Coffee Farms
Show Description
Tool 8: This tool has been designed to introduce effective monitoring concepts and red flags for labor risks among coffee sector workers as well as guidance on conducting worker interviews and triangulating information to detect labor risks. While the information included in this tool will be helpful for most actors along the coffee supply chain that interact directly with producers, the main target users for this tool are those actors who regularly conduct farm-level monitoring. This tool is thus most helpful for field technicians, monitors, and certification bodies. |

Self-Assessment Questionnaire for Coffee Producers
Show Description
Tool 9b: Self-Assessment Questionnaires (SAQs) are a set of self-administered questions that allow the user of the SAQ to identify potential risks or gaps in their standards, systems, and practices. The purpose of an SAQ is to give the user a space to reflect and introspectively assess themselves and their performance across a range of topics. This SAQ is geared towards helping coffee producers identify potential labor risks1 in their operations and to provide them with concrete steps that they can take to address identified risks. The SAQ is an internal tool, which does not require the sharing of your answers with anyone, so it is best for users of the SAQ to answer the questions as fully, honestly, and accurately as possible so that the recommendations generated most closely meet the user’s needs. |

Marco Para la Verificación Independiente del Suministro Ético
Show Description
Tool 11: Spanish: Increased expectations from clients and consumers, coupled with expanding regulations on ethical sourcing in supply chains can create challenges for coffee companies, but also presents opportunities for companies willing to differentiate their business models and ethical sourcing practices. This guide proposes a simple framework for a voluntary independent verification system for coffee companies willing to leverage transparency and accountability as an integral part of their ethical sourcing practices and systems. If well-implemented, the framework will nurture innovation that can create a competitive advantage for the company and its supply chain partners. |

Guia de Apresentação de Relatórios Públicos para Atores-chave do Setor Privado
Show Description
Tool 12: Portuguese: Companies that export, import, roast, and sell coffee to consumers face increasing imperatives to report publicly on their activities and progress addressing human rights issues within their supply chains. Socially responsible investors focused on Environment, Social, and Governance (ESG) criteria routinely evaluate companies’ performance on issues such as child labor and forced labor, with data on human rights and labor performance used to populate the “social” rankings within the overall ESG assessment. In addition, major voluntary frameworks such as the UN Global Compact (UNGC) and the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights (UNGP) require regular reporting on progress toward specific sustainability and human rights standards. Mandatory due diligence reporting regimes on key issues such as modern day slavery and child labor are also increasingly being instituted by state, national, and international governmental bodies as a condition of operating, importing, and selling goods within specific political boundaries. Developments such as these make it essential for companies to be able to communicate clearly and regularly about their compliance systems and progress |
