SLCP SIGNATORY
Social & Labor Convergence Program (SLCP)
Sustainable Management System Inc. is proud to be a Signatory of the Social & Labor Convergence Program (SLCP), supporting responsible supply chains, improved working conditions, and industry collaboration across the apparel, textile, and footwear sectors.
About SLCP
The Social & Labor Convergence Program (SLCP) is a multi-stakeholder initiative that aims to improve working conditions in global supply chains through a standardized assessment framework. SLCP helps reduce audit duplication and supports a more efficient and collaborative approach to social and labor assessments.
Through the Converged Assessment Framework (CAF), facilities can complete one standardized assessment that may be shared with multiple stakeholders, allowing organizations to focus more resources on improvement actions, worker wellbeing, and sustainable workplace practices.

SLCP signatories include brands, retailers, manufacturers, service providers, civil society organizations, and other stakeholders committed to improving social and labor conditions within global supply chains.
Why SLCP Matters
Traditional social compliance auditing systems often create repetitive assessments, increased operational burden, and audit fatigue for facilities and supply chain partners. SLCP promotes a more collaborative and efficient approach by encouraging the use of one converged assessment framework that can be accepted by multiple stakeholders.
Through our participation as an SLCP Signatory, Sustainable Management System Inc. continues supporting responsible sourcing initiatives, workplace improvement, ethical business practices, and sustainable supply chain development globally.
