What is SLCP (Higg FSLM) Verification? Ending Audit Fatigue in Global Supply Chains

One of the most exhausting administrative burdens borne by manufacturing enterprises is undergoing dozens of duplicative social audits annually for different international buyers. The Social & Labor Convergence Program (SLCP), widely executed as Higg FSLM, is an industry-wide converged framework engineered to eliminate audit fatigue through high-integrity verified data sharing.

How SLCP Operates: 3 Core Stages

  1. Self/Joint Assessment: The factory completes the comprehensive Converged Assessment Framework (CAF) across wages, hours, OHS, and management systems on Worldly.
  2. On-Site Third-Party Verification: An accredited Verifier Body (VB) forensic auditor validates the accuracy of every recorded data point on-site.
  3. Secure Data Sharing: The verified data is stored on the SLCP Gateway and instantly shared with multiple global brands with a single click.
