Training
WRAP is the world's largest independent certification
program mainly focused on the apparel, footwear, and sewn
products sectors.
Becoming a WRAP certified facility involves much more than simply passing an
audit. We take a collaborative approach to social compliance certification in which we
work with our facilities to ensure that they remain in compliance with our 12
Principles. This does require, however, that all of our facilities actively engage in the
process themselves and see to it that effective management systems are maintained to
ensure compliance requirements are met.

THE CERTIFICATION PROCESS
1. Application
A production facility submits basic information to WRAP and pays a registration fee of US$1195.

2. Self-Assessment
Facilities complete a self-assessment of their facility to show that they
have been utilizing socially-compliant practices for a minimum of 90 days (for new facilities; facilities
seeking re-certification are expected to have been compliant throughout their preceding certification
period). We offer the following resources for facilities to use during their Self-Assessment:

4. 3. Monitoring
After submitting their self-assessment, the facility selects a WRAP-accredited monitoring organization
to audit the facility against WRAP's 12 Principles. The audit must be successfully passed within 6
months of paying the registration fee to avoid having to re-register.

4. Evaluation
WRAP will review the monitor's audit report and decide whether or not to certify the facility. If WRAP
decides not to issue a certification, the facility will be notified of the corrections that need to be made
and the monitoring firm will conduct an additional inspection. If the facility does not satisfactorily
implement the recommendations within the original six-month period, it must renew its application and
pay the registration fee again.
5. Certification
There are three levels of WRAP certification – Platinum, Gold and Silver. The certificate issued to a
facility is determined by WRAP and depends on the extent to which the audit indicates full compliance
and management commitment to the WRAP Principles.
*All certified facilities are subject to random, unannounced
Post-Certification Audits during their certification period.
CERTIFICATION LEVELS
PLATINUM (Valid for 2 years)
A facility must maintain a Gold certification for at least 3 consecutive years before it can be
considered for Platinum certification. All Platinum-certified facilities must successfully pass
each audit with no corrective actions and maintain continuous certification in order to remain
Platinum (a facility whose certification lapses for any reason must hold a Gold certification for at
least 3 consecutive years before it can regain Platinum status).
GOLD (Valid for 1 year)
Gold certifications are awarded to facilities that demonstrate full compliance with WRAP's 12
Principles during an audit.
*NOTICE: Any facility that cannot show complete and accurate records regarding wages
and/or working hours during ANY audit (initial, re-certification, or post-certification) will
automatically lose eligibility for Platinum and Gold certification for their current period.
This includes any violations of Principles 5 or 6 where WRAP monitors indicate issues with
record keeping or cannot verify them due to inconsistencies.
SILVER (Valid for 6 months)
A facility may request a Silver level certification if an audit finds that it is in substantial
5. compliance with the WRAP principles, but has minor non-compliances in policies, procedures or
training that need to be addressed. Facilities seeking certification through this route must request
a Silver certificate in writing from a WRAP office at the conclusion of their first formal audit as
a certificate will not be automatically issued. Important points to note in this regard are:
• Facilities may not have any "red flag" non-compliances such as child labor, egregious health &
safety or environmental issues, prison labor, forced or involuntary labor, or harassment or abuse of
employees.
• Facilities must demonstrate that their employees are paid at least the minimum wage and any
required overtime compensation.
Alternatively, the WRAP Review Board may issue a Silver certificate if any of these criteria are
met:
The facility is a first-time applicant and has demonstrated difficulty in achieving full
compliance or has shown non-material non-compliances in one of these areas:
•working hours
•training and communications with employees
•payment of regular wages and overtime premiums
•any other factors that would bar the facility from being granted a Gold
certificate
The facility is applying for a re-certification, but non-material non-compliances are found
during the audit
Special Notices for Silver Certifications:
All Silver-certified facilities wishing to renew their certification must reapply prior to the
expiration of their certificate, pay a reduced registraion fee of US$895, and demonstrate
improvement toward achieving Gold certification at the subsequent audit.
A facility may be awarded no more than 3 consecutive Silver certificates. If a facility fails to
achieve full compliance within this time period, its certification will be revoked, however the
facility may reapply for certification using its original registration number following a waiting
period of 6 months.
Facilities that have two successive "clean" audits will be eligible for a Gold certificate.
