The SLF social audit has been recognised by LWG for meeting the requirements of the LWG Leather Manufacturer Audit protocol

We are delighted to announce that following several review sessions, the SLF Social Audit has been recognised by LWG for meeting the social requirements of the LWG Leather Manufacturer Audit Protocol.  In our last post about our SGS auditors, we wrote about how auditing requirements in the leather industry can be confusing and that we are supporting the industry by working with other organisations to provide solutions; this is further evidence of that collaboration. 

We hope to continue to develop our collaborative efforts in the coming months.
