Course overview

Buying decisions can affect workers well beyond cost and delivery. This practical, scenario-based course helps buyers and sourcing teams recognise warning signs, check whether supplier evidence matches the actual production arrangement, respond safely and record defensible decisions.


You will learn how to:

• Separate an indicator from evidence and a supported conclusion.

• Recognise how buying practices can increase or reduce worker risk.

• Combine people, recruitment, production and commercial risk factors.

• Test whether supplier evidence is relevant, current and credible.

• Notice concerns, ask the right questions, escalate promptly and record the decision.
