RBA 6.0 Code of Conduct
Responsible Business Alliance
The RBA 6.0 Code of Conduct is a set of Social, Environmental and Ethical Industry Standards. Founded in 2004, the Responsible Business Alliance (RBA) is a Non-Profit Organization comprised of Electronics, Retail, Auto & Toy Companies committed to supporting the Rights and Wellbeing of Workers and Communities Worldwide affected by the Global Supply Chain. The RBA, formerly known as the EICC, was established in 2004 to promote a common code of conduct for the electronics and information and communications technology (ICT) industry. It now includes more than 110 member companies worldwide in the electronics, retail, auto and toy sectors and their suppliers. The current RBA audit protocol, version 6.0.0, was ratified in 2017 and came into effect on 1 February, 2018. RBA is the world’s largest Industry Coalition dedicated to CSR in Global Supply Chains. The Responsible Business Alliance (RBA) Code of Conduct establishes standards to ensure that working conditions in the electronics industry or industries in which electronics is a key component and its supply chains are safe, that workers are treated with respect and dignity, and that business operations are environmentally responsible and conducted ethically. The code of conduct provides clear and measurable benefits for factories in supply chains, including increased productivity and quality and reduced worker turnover, injuries and illnesses. It also enables companies to demonstrate their social responsibility towards society when bidding for international contracts or expanding locally to accommodate new business. The code of conduct has been widely adopted as the standard for social responsibility across the electronics and ICT industry. The RBA 6.0 Code covers five principles namely Labor, Health and Safety, Environment, Ethics and Management Systems.
