Video: Getting to grips with responsible sourcing

The Features desk

This film, by membership organisation Sedex, introduces the key concepts at the heart of modern responsible sourcing, charting it’s evolution from a niche activity into the mainstream procurement strategy that’s embraced by forward-thinking business leaders around the world.

From human resources to risk management, public relations to procurement, legal to investor relations, Sedex highlights how responsible sourcing is relevant not only across your own operations, but also focuses on its vital role in reducing risks and raising standards down the entire supply chain.

This is episode one of six. Blue & Green Tomorrow will be featuring a new film every fortnight. For more information about the Responsible Sourcing Insights series, see here.
