Amavili esikiweyo sisixhobo esibalulekileyo sezixhobo kumashishini amaninzi kubandakanya ulwakhiwo, ukusebenza ngesinyithi kunye neshishini leemoto.Yiyo loo nto ukukhetha umenzi ofanelekileyo kubalulekile ekuqinisekiseni ukuba uyahlangabezana nezinto ozilindeleyo kunye neemfuno.Ukukhetha umenzi othembekileyo kufuna ukukhangela iziqinisekiso ezahlukeneyo, kubandakanya nezatifikethi zeSMETA.Kodwa yintoni isiqinisekiso se-SMETA kwaye sinokukunceda njani?
I-SMETA (i-Sedex Members Ethical Trade Audit) luphicotho-zincwadi nenkqubo yoqinisekiso eyamkelwa ngamalungu e-Sedex (Supplier Ethical Data Exchange), eyasekwa ngowama-2004. imigangatho yokhuseleko.
Xa ukhetha umenzi wevili elisikiweyo, isatifikethi se-SMETA sikuqinisekisa ukuba umenzi wazo uthobela imigangatho yeenqobo ezisesikweni nentlalo-ntle ebalulekileyo kumbutho wakho.Isatifikethi sibandakanya iinkalo ezininzi eziphambili ezifana:
1. Imigangatho yezabasebenzi- Izatifikethi zeSMETA zibandakanya imigangatho yezabasebenzi efana nokuqeshwa kwabantwana, ukusetyenzwa ngenkani, kunye namalungelo abasebenzi.Le migangatho iqinisekisa ukuba abasebenzi basebenza phantsi kweemeko zobuntu kwaye bahlawulwa ngokufanelekileyo ngemigudu yabo.
2. Impilo noKhuseleko - Oku kubandakanya ukubonelela ngendawo yokusebenza ekhuselekileyo kunye nokujongana neengozi ezinxulumene nomsebenzi ukunciphisa iingozi kunye nokulimala.Abavelisi abaqinisekisiweyo be-SMETA balandela le migangatho yezempilo nokhuseleko ukukhusela abasebenzi babo.
3. ImiGangatho yokuSingqongileyo - Ukuqinisekiswa kwe-SMETA kufuna ukuba abavelisi bathobele imimiselo yokusingqongileyo, kubandakanywa ukulahlwa ngokufanelekileyo kweemveliso zenkunkuma kunye nokunciphisa i-carbon footprint.Oku kunceda ukunciphisa impembelelo yokusingqongileyo kwaye kunciphisa ukuxhomekeka kwabavelisi kumafutha efosili.
Ngokukhetha umenzi wevili osikiweyo onesatifikethi se-SMETA, ungabonisa ukuzibophelela kwakho kwimigaqo yokuziphatha nentlalontle.Ukongeza, ukukhetha umenzi oqinisekisiweyo kunciphisa imingcipheko kwimisebenzi yakho yeshishini, efana nobungozi obusemthethweni kunye nodumo.Abavelisi abaqinisekisiweyo baye bavavanywa ngononophelo ukuze bakwazi ukukunika iimveliso kunye neenkonzo ezithembekileyo nezithembekileyo.
Ukukhetha umenzi wevili osikiweyo ochanekileyo onesatifikethi se-SMETA, kufuneka uqwalasele ezi zinto zilandelayo:
1. Ukuthembeka- Abavelisi abathembekileyo babonelela ngeediski zokusika ezikumgangatho ophezulu kunye neenkonzo ezihlangabezana neemfuno zakho kunye nolindelo.Khangela umenzi onodumo oluqinileyo kunye namava kwishishini.
2. Ukuthobela – Ukuqinisekisa ukuba abavelisi bathobela iimfuno nemigaqo eyimfuneko.Qinisekisa ukuba iidiski zabo zokusika ziyahlangabezana neziqinisekiso eziyimfuneko kunye nemigangatho.
3. Inkonzo yabaThengi- Abavelisi abanenkonzo ebalaseleyo yabathengi baphendula imibuzo ngokukhawuleza kwaye bakunike inkxaso eyaneleyo kuwo wonke umjikelo wobomi beediski zokusika.
Ngamafutshane, isatifikethi se-SMETA sisiqinisekiso esibalulekileyo ekufuneka sijongwe xa ukhetha umenzi wevili lokusika.Iqinisekisa ukuba umenzi ubambelela kwimigangatho yokuziphatha kunye nentlalo ebalulekileyo kumbutho wakho.Xa ukhetha umenzi, vavanya isidima sabo, ukuthotyelwa, kunye nenkonzo yabathengi ukukhetha iqabane elithembekileyo elinokubonelela ngamavili aphezulu okusika kunye neenkonzo.
