Human rights risks in supply chains can arise unpredictably, therefore, dynamic monitoring is essential to manage emerging hazards and assure compliance.

Monitoring is crucial to assure that you manage risks within your operations and maintain compliance with internal Codes of Conduct or international standards.  Compliance to guidelines and principles have become a regulatory demand or a legal requirement to continue business activities that set reliable players apart from the rest.
