Confirmation audit
A confirmation audit is either a focused or unannounced audit and might take place between an Initial and a Renewal or in between two Renewal audits to confirm compliance. A confirmation audit is conducted if FLOCERT’s assessment of the organisation’s individual needs requires it. This assessment is based on: Compliance with the Fairtrade Standards, Fairtrade Premium amount received/ paid, and the individual setup.
