Integrity Programme

It is a condition of Safe to Trade that FBOs allow Safe to Trade access to its premises to carry out integrity audits.

The purpose of these audits is to provide stakeholder confidence in the integrity of audits conducted by Certification Bodies. Integrity audits cover the scope of the Safe to Trade Standard but are not underpinned by UKAS accreditation. Safe to Trade may outsource the audits.

Integrity audits will not be charged, however non-conformances identified must be addressed in accordance with the requirements of the Standard.
