We are subject to several audits as a member of the Business Social Compliance Initiative (BSCI) and the Suppliers Ethical Data Exchange (SEDEX).
As a member of BSCI, we are audited in topics such as social management systems, employee engagement, freedom of association and collective bargaining, prevention of discrimination, fair remuneration, OHS, prevention of precarious employment, prevention of forced and child labour, environmental protection, and ethical behaviour. We fulfil these requirements in all countries we operate in accordance with the local laws and regulations. It is adhered to contracts signed with employees. Signed contracts comply with legislation in the countries where Beko operates and fully comply with local GDPR rules. We strictly follow, pay attention to, and commit to compliance.
