FSC is consulting a joint Review Report on two main chain of custody standards. The report outlines key topics to be considered during the revision process. Participate before 2 September 2022 in the Consultation Platform to add your feedback; all stakeholders welcome.  

FSC invites you to provide feedback on the review report of the trademark standard for certificate holders (FSC-STD-50-001.) The public consultation is open until 15 September 2022.

The protection of workers’ rights has always been part of FSC’s Principles and mandatory for forest management certificate holders, and now, social requirements are also included in the FSC chain of custody (CoC) standard. These requirements aim to ensure that the protection of workers’ rights is firmly tied to a company’s FSC certificate. FSC has produced guidance for contractors, subcontractors and outsourcers on these requirements.
