1 Due to the sampling nature of the auditing exercise, absence of findings during an assessment does not assure the full compliance of the facility nor does it guarantee that violations may not appear in the future. BSCI and the auditing company do not accept responsibility for conditions at other locations that may be used in the supply chain of the relevant product or service since this report covers the production site listed under ‘’audited company’’ only.
