Ethical Toy Program completes audit panel review, approving new panel of third-party audit companies

The quality and integrity of the IETP Factory Certification Program is our priority. To ensure we continue to meet and exceed our stakeholder's requirements we review our Approved Audit Panel partners every 3 years. We have just completed our Audit Panel Review and are pleased to announce the five audit firms who will be our partners. They are:SGSSCSAIntertekTUV-RheinlandQIMAWe are working with these companies and, the companies who will exit our panel, to ensure a smooth transition, with no disruption to any of our members. We expect this transition process to take six months. It will involve on-boarding 3 new firms to the panel and the exiting of 2 firms. Any assigned Audit or Progress Visit to your facility is unaffected. All IETP, new and exiting, accredited audit firms will continue to provide the service as expected during the transition period. We will consider the transition timeframe when assigning an audit firm to conduct any activity at your facility.
