Member of BSCI
BSCI unites 1,055 companies around the world (as of May 9, 2013) around a common code of conduct and supports their efforts towards ethical supply chains. To provide them with a step-by-step development-oriented social responsibility system that is applicable to all sectors and all purchasing countries.
Members include global retailers, brand owners and multinational sourcing groups, as well as associations and organizations.
Code of Conduct
1. The Initiative for Social Responsibility in Business (BSCI), whose members are retail companies and associations, importers and production companies, is a universal monitoring system for compliance with social responsibility in European society. It aims to continuously improve the social responsibility performance of its members' production and supply facilities around the world. The BSCI monitoring system is not intended to replace other established external multi-stakeholder identification systems.
2. BSCI members consider themselves responsible for all activities under their name worldwide. They especially feel a responsibility to provide good working conditions for the employees who produce their products. BSCI members also believe that this responsibility should extend to all employees who produce for BSCI members, whether they are employees directly employed by BSCI members or by third-party subcontractors and suppliers.
3. In order to create productive conditions that have an impact and contribute to socially acceptable production conditions, BSCI members have developed this Code of Conduct. All suppliers of BSCI members worldwide are also obligated to comply with this Code of Conduct.
BSCI members are expected to implement the Code of Conduct in a positive and cooperative spirit. They are happy to maintain all existing business relationships while fully complying with the Code. BSCI plans to raise awareness of this issue in the near future and achieve continuous and sustainable improvements in the coming years. Improvements in compliance with social responsibility will enable suppliers to meet the needs of existing and future markets, as well as legal requirements. Suppliers' social responsibility performance can be systematically improved over time and the crisis of resistance can be avoided. BSCI's position is that the economy is sustainable and society can progress only if basic living standards are maintained and improved.
4. The Code of Conduct only states minimum standards and should not be understood as maximum, nor should it be used in any way to the detriment of employees, for example, to restrict employees' freedom of association or the right to collective bargaining.
5. BSCI members consider themselves to be working in partnership with their suppliers. The implementation of socially acceptable conditions of production is based on the principles of dialogue, consensus, cooperation and equity. The interests of the parties most affected by the change should be placed prominently in any consideration and change. The implementation and enforcement of the Code of Conduct depends on the development of the respective suppliers and the countries in which they operate. The ultimate goal of BSCI is to fully implement the Code.
6. Suppliers must ensure that all subcontractors involved in the production process (e.g. modulation and assembly activities) representing BSCI members up to the final production stage are presentComply with the Code of Conduct.

Three. Explanation of the audit aspect
BSCI audits can only be conducted by SAI-accredited audit firms and auditors, and BSCI reports are valid for three years.
Before being audited, suppliers should submit existing audit reports and certificates to the auditing company. If a valid SA8000 certificate or an equivalent certificate is submitted that relates to the scope of BSCI, there is no need to take any further audit measures. The same applies if the supplier is currently in the process of obtaining SA8000 certification or equivalent certification.
Audit Principles: Audits are conducted in accordance with the BSCI Management Manual and Audit Guidelines. The purpose of the audit is to assist suppliers in improving their social standards. In order to ensure consistent application of the BSCI objectives and principles, the BSCI Audit Questionnaire is used in all audits.

Principles of Payroll Accounting
Normal working days: Monday to Friday evenings overtime is calculated at 1.5 times the usual wage;
Rest days: Saturday and Sunday overtime work is calculated at twice the usual wage;
The above-mentioned statutory holidays: overtime will be calculated at 3 times the usual salary.
The minimum employee wage guarantee in XX province and XX city is: XXXX yuan/month;
The hourly wage on a normal working day is: XXX÷21.75÷8=XXX yuan/hour-------- monthly salary days = ( 365 days - 104 days) ÷December = 21.75 days
Monday to Friday night overtime: XXX×1.5=XXX yuan/hour
Saturday and Sunday overtime: XXX×2=XXX yuan/hour
Overtime on statutory holidays: XXX×3=XXX yuan/hour
