Here is the honest situation. The Ethical Trading Initiative Base Code is a code of labour practice founded on ILO conventions, addressing workers' rights across operations and supply chains: freely chosen employment, freedom of association, safe and hygienic conditions, no child labour, living wages, working hours, no discrimination, humane treatment, regular employment and grievance mechanisms. Implementing it depends on risk assessment, supplier remediation and responsible purchasing practices. An organization that endorses the Base Code but cannot show its supplier assessments, worker grievance routes or remediation is exactly where organizations fall short.
This Kit removes the guesswork. It is the ETI Base Code written as adopt-ready controls you personalize in a weekend, with the evidence an auditor examines.
What you get, the moment you buy
Grounded in Ethical Trading Initiative (ETI) Base Code. Editable Word and Excel files.
What one control looks like
This is the first control, where the framework begins. All 18 are built to this depth.
Why this is not another template pack
- The evidence is the point. A requirement you cannot evidence is a finding waiting to happen. This tells you what an auditor examines and where organizations fall short, for every requirement.
- The substance built in. The core requirements are written into the controls, not left as principles.
- Built on a mapped compliance corpus, not one person's opinion, from a graph of thousands of controls across standards.
- It compounds. This framework aligns with your wider compliance program, so the work feeds other standards.
Who buys this
Organizations subject to this framework and their relevant leads. Whether it is a first alignment or a readiness pass, you save weeks and walk in with the requirements structured.
Common questions
Is it really editable? Yes. Word and Excel files you own and adapt. No portal, no subscription.
Is this an official ETI tool? No. It is an independent implementation toolkit grounded in the published ETI Base Code, to get your controls and evidence in order fast.
Does it help me self-assess? Yes. The Gap and Readiness assessment scores you against the requirements and ranks the fixes.
Is this legal advice? No. It is an implementation toolkit grounded in the framework. For a specific matter consult a qualified adviser; this gets your controls and evidence in order fast.
