What is the SA 8000 Certification?

Created in 1997 by Social Accountability International (SAI),a global non-governmental organization, the SA 8000 Standard has been guiding companies and organizations worldwide towards ethical business practices, ensuring the respect of fundamental rights for decent and fair work.

The SA 8000 Standard is based on internationally recognized standards of decent work, including the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, International Labour Organization (ILO) conventions, and national laws.

Adopting SA 8000 represents a real and tangible commitment to social sustainability and corporate ethics and creates a positive impact both within the organization and in the community as a whole.

How SA 8000 Integrates into our Management Model

International certification schemes often share common principles. Standards for healthy and safe work environments align closely with those for environmental protection. Certifications help companies comply with local and international regulations, while reducing the risk of corruption and ensuring adherence to industry best practices.

SA 8000 for Social Responsibility

PdR 125 for Equal Opportunities (currently undergoing certification)

This holistic approach optimizes the company’s internal regulatory framework and paves the way for seamless integration of future standards. Through this model of excellence, OverIT enhances operational efficiency and creates the best possible conditions to guarantee sustainable growth and the well-being of its employees and stakeholders.
