Glimpses of the SA 8000:2014 training course

The SA 8000:2014 standard is significantly getting recognised globally. Consultivo conducted a public training program on SA 8000:2014, on 1 & 2 September 2016 in Kolkata. It was for the first time in Kolkata that a combined course on SA 8000:2014 standard implementation and auditing course had been arranged. The comprehensive two-day course programme by Consultivo reviewed the structure & basic requirements of SA 8000. It enabled the professionals to implement and conduct the internal audit to improve the effectiveness of SA 8000 and add value to their organisation.

The aim of this training was to make the delegates understand the need for Social Accountability Management at the workplace and the requirements of the SA 8000:2014 Standard.

DKS Moorthy, principal consultant and lead auditor, Consultivo conducted the whole session and helped the corporates identify the gaps in their current practiced standards and plan their transition to the revised standard.

Mr Moorthy, having hands-on industry experience of more than 40 years also gave a brief overview of SA 8000:2014 standard and explained its scope to the organisations who haven’t applied for the SA 8000 standard certifications. He is in the management position of DNV’s Global Accreditations in SA 8000 and is also the auditor on behalf of the Social Accountability Accreditation Society (SAAS), USA.
