Usage Guidance
-
A certification must come from a third party, be based on transparent standards, and have an assurance process. The process of certification must be carried out by a recognized third-party body, independent from interested parties, which demonstrates that a product or organization complies with the requirements defined by the standards or technical specifications. Examples of such certifications include: UTZ Certified, Fair Trade (WFTO fair trade standard), Common Code for the Coffee Community (C4), Rainforest Alliance agriculture certification, Marine Stewardship Council (MSC), and the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC).
-
Organizations should footnote relevant details about the certification (such as certification name and certifying body) and can do so by reporting separately on Product/Service Certifications (PD2756).
-
Organizations that sell different types of products/services should consider reporting separately against each different product/service.
