Supplier Code of Conduct Programs

Is there a risk your Chinese suppliers might cause you embarrassment? International standards for code of conduct are partly against Chinese national laws and common practices, and has hence not got much recognition in China. A balanced approach is needed where pressure and incentive to suppliers to improve is done in harmony with Chinese government direction. We can help you develop your local supplier Code of Conduct system, perform audits and compile supplier performance statistics.

Do you have time and knowledge to control your operation in China? Does your staff really understand your values? Are you sure your suppliers follow acceptable labor, safety and environmental regulations and standards? Scandic sourcing offers a number of services to help you minimize risk when dealing in China.

Code of Conduct Training

The Chinese ethics environment has been turbulent and undergone too many rapid changes in the last decade. The result is a work force with a very unhomogeneous value system. It is very helpful to have a clear Code of Conduct system and to give direction and training to your staff. Scandic sourcing can help you to develop a basic system, or based on your own code of conduct system provide staff training adapted to the unique local environment.

Supervisor & Board member

In the 2006 company law the position of corporate supervisor has been established. A supervisor has the authority on behalf of the owner to supervise that the Chinese subsidiary General managements actions are in compliance with local laws and practices. It is necessary to have someone with operating experience in China to avoid some of the common pitfalls. We provide supervisor services and help review your internal authority and control systems. We can also act as executive or non-executive board members to ensure that your China venture capitalize on our guidance and experience.
