SMETA 4 Pillars Audit at Natura
To ensure the highest quality of collaboration and guarantee good practices at Natura, we underwent a SMETA audit. A representative from an independent auditing organization examined Natura’s compliance with the SMETA 4 Pillar standard, which includes the assessment of working conditions (including the treatment of employees), employee health and safety, environmental protection, and business ethics. In many areas, the standard’s requirements exceed those imposed by national or local laws.
We encourage our business partners who are members of the Sedex program to contact us and create a “connection” with Natura on the Sedex platform. We are happy to share our audit report, as we believe we have much to be proud of.

An additional 15-minute break for employees.
