This annual repor t covers the BSCI activities carried out from January to December 2008 in order to reach our goal: the improvement of the working conditions in the global supply chain of our members.

The structure and content of this repor t has been designed to meet the requirements of the Global Repor ting Initiative to which BSCI is an organisational stakeholder. The GRI is an international organisation that develops globally applicable guidelines for sustainable repor ting of companies on their economic, social and environmental performance. As the BSCI is a non profit organisation, we cannot repor t on some disclosures which concern corporations. On other essential questions, our report goes beyond the GRI criteria.
