Process
SR 10 certification is deployed by IQNET SR 10 Representatives and provides independent assurance and confidence that an organisation’s social responsibility management system has been effectively implemented.
This confidence is enhanced through IQNET Representatives' global presence, dominance, credibility and reputation in management systems certification.
Although the SR 10 specification is publicly available, the SR 10 certification scheme is supported by IQNET Association certification rules and monitored by IQNet Ltd. As scheme owner, IQNET Association recognizes only SR 10 certificates which are complying with these established rules, namely to be issued by an authorized IQNet Representative.
