How will Better Work assessment data be used?
All data generated (including SLCP data), will continue to be used by Better Work to measure compliance, support research, encourage transparency on working conditions and provide an evidence base to inform national and global policy discussions and collective action. This will be done in collaboration with SLCP where relevant.
Better Work’s vision is to promote data sharing between industry actors. Better Work’s infrastructure currently supports direct data sharing with the SLCP gateway, but has also been set up to enable data sharing with other actors (e.g. national partners, manufacturers and others).
If the facility wishes, Better Work facilitates submitting data from its assessment to the SLCP Gateway. Manufacturers participating in the SLCP can determine in the Gateway which Accredited Hosts and other SLCP users they would like to share the data with. While Better Work will not formally take the role of an Accredited Host, Better Work has adapted its IT systems to support data sharing accordingly.
