SLCP (Social and Labor Convergence Project) is a multi-stakeholder initiative that is aiming to improve labor conditions in the apparel and footwear industry. The program was officially rolled out in May 2019 . As of May 2019, there are over 200 SLCP signatories in total. Leverage is dedicated to helping manufacturers and buyers pick up SCLP assessment tools and ultimately reduce the number of factory audits.
■ SLCP Objective
The objective of the Social and Labor Convergence Project (SLCP) is to create a Converged Assessment Framework for social and labor data collection that will eliminate audit fatigue. It aims to avoid duplications and reduce the number of social and labor audits, by replacing current proprietary assessment tools. This will allow resources that were previously designated for compliance audits to be redirected towards the improvement of social and labor conditions. It will also increase the opportunity for greater comparability of social and labor data.
