Overview
Abuses that take place in supply chains can be hard to spot, particularly where those abuses take place within the manufacturing facilities of tier 2 suppliers, with whom the company has no direct relationship. Some companies, such as Apple, carry out detailed audits, which they report on annually, of their supply chain sustainability. They look to discover if their Tier 2 suppliers are using underage labour, involuntary or bonded labour or making workers work excessive hours. Not every company is so scrupulous and abuses are often discovered in industry such as garment manufacturing. Supply chain sustainability is also concerned with traceability of raw materials as well as other topics.
