ILS Audit Requirements
ILS审核要求
As a Licensee or Vendor, you are required to submit a qualified ILS Audit Report for Facilities in designated Permitted Sourcing Countries (if one is not already on file) demonstrating each Facility’s compliance with the Minimum Compliance Standard (“MCS”). You must submit a qualified ILS Audit Report for each Facility you use to manufacture Disney branded products in designated Permitted Sourcing Countries.
In addition to ILS Audits conducted in accordance with Disney’s ILS Audit standards and conducted by a Social Compliance Monitoring Organization that is approved by Disney, Disney also accepts a variety of other qualified programs.
You will be required to submit ILS Audit Reports for Facilities in designated Permitted Sourcing Countries as follows:
• FOR INITIAL USE OF A FACILITY: Preproduction ILS Audit Reports
demonstrating compliance with the MCS must be submitted prior to the initial
authorization by Disney and the commencement of production, if one is not
already on file with Disney.
• FOR A NEWLY-ESTABLISHED FACILITY: A Facility with less than three
months of available records is not eligible for Disney-branded production.
For a Facility that has been in business for more than three months but less
than 12 months, a preproduction ILS Audit Report demonstrating compliance
with the MCS based upon required records for all months of operation must be
submitted prior to the initial authorization by Disney and the commencement
of production.
• FOR A RELOCATED FACILITY: A relocated Facility is treated as a newly
established Facility. In addition, a relocated Facility from which Disney has
previously withdrawn authorization within the last five years must go through
the Facility Reinstatement Process.
• FOR A BETTER WORK FACILITY: Only Better Work assessments will be
accepted by Disney for Facilities that participate in a Better Work program.
No other ILS Audit Reports will be accepted in lieu of a Better Work assessment
where available.
Because some Facilities are used by other Disney Licensees and Vendors that are also submitting ILS Audit Reports, it is important to check your monthly Licensee/Vendor Status Report to determine when ILS Audit Reports must be submitted. The due date or Facility status may change as a result of the submission of ILS Audit Reports by other Licensees and Vendors.
The following are some steps you may wish to take if you are required to submit an ILS Audit Report to Disney. Following these steps may enable you to comply with the ILS Audit requirements more efficiently:
1. Check with your Disney ILS Representative to determine if the Facility you propose to use has an ILS Audit Report demonstrating that the Facility meets the MCS already on file with Disney.
2. If Disney does not have an ILS Audit Report on file, check with the Facility to determine if they have a qualified ILS Audit Report on file from a recent qualified ILS Audit. Disney accepts a variety of qualified audit programs.
If the Facility does have such a report on file, then send that report to Disney.
3. If Disney does not have an ILS Audit Report on file for the Facility and the Facility does not have a qualified ILS Audit Report available, then you must schedule a new qualified ILS Audit of the Facility. This ILS Audit must meet Disney requirements to be considered a qualified ILS Audit.
