Resumen
Descripción
Within the private sector there can be standards or codes of conduct designed on the initiative of private companies for application at an internal level, or at the level of suppliers. The main objective is to ensure compliance with basic standards facilitating management along the supply chain and minimizing social and environmental impacts . They are an alternative that can enact similar standards to external certifications. The main advantage of this type of standard is the likelihood of its fulfilment, due to being developed internally. Likewise, the main disadvantage is the cost and time required to be recognized and accepted by customers.
