About Social Factory Audit
Independent assessment of labour practices, workplace safety, and social compliance to protect your brand and workers.
QTI’s Social Factory Audit evaluates working conditions, labour policies, worker welfare, and compliance with internationally accepted social standards. Our auditors examine payroll & contracts, working hours, health & safety arrangements, accommodation (if provided), and evidence of forced or child labour risks.
This audit is essential for brands and retailers committed to ethical sourcing and supply-chain transparency.
Why Conduct a Social Factory Audit?
Protect your brand, ensure worker welfare, and reduce social & reputational risk in your supply chain.
Our auditors conduct confidential worker interviews, management interviews, documentation review and an onsite inspection to form a balanced view of the factory’s social performance. Findings are collated into a clear report with prioritized corrective actions and suggested follow-up steps.

- A. Employment records, payroll, contracts, and working hours
