Living Wage
Living wage is one of the knowledge areas of ImpactBuying as we believe that poverty for workers in supply chains is the root cause of many social compliance issues. That is why the ImpactBuying Academy, added the Training of Auditors on Living Wages in collaboration with IDH, The Sustainable Trade Initiative. First, second-, and third-party auditors are trained to verify the Living Wage Gap based on the IDH Salary Matrix. Besides training auditors directly, the ImpactBuying Academy also offers a Training the Trainer approach.
Application
We are offering 2 types of training programs:
- Training the Auditor (1st, 2nd and 3rd party auditors*)
- Training the Trainer (for 3rd parties*) *1st party = company, 2nd party = internal auditors, 3rd party = external auditors
