Nike’s commitment to sustainability

 

As part of Nike’s ongoing commitment to sustainability, it is a requirement for their supply chain partners to complete a 2023 Higg Facility Environmental Module (FEM) or Facility Foundations and Higg Facility Social and Labour Module (FSLM), with verification.

 

This year, Nike requires each facility to purchase FEM 2023 subscription to access the assessments.

 

Nike is working with Worldly, Cascale’s technology partner, to help facilities complete their assessment(s). Worldly will be sending email communications throughout the reporting period to each facility. These Worldly communications will provide resources and guidance on next steps to ensure facilities are getting the support they need to meet Nike’s completion requirements on time.

Nike's Deadlines 2024 – 2025 (FSLM)

Please refer to your last rating announcement under the “Next Assessment Due Date” field for your specific deadline. Each facility has a unique deadline based on when the last verified assessment was finalized.

All verified Higg FSLM modules must be posted and shared with Nike. Migration of previous assessments from FFC will not be necessary, we are able to access these directly.

For facilities completing Better Work-SLCP (BW-SLCP) assessments, please share the verified assessment with Nike on Worldly as soon as it is finalized. The facility will need to purchase a $200 transfer fee to move the BW-SLCP from the gateway to the Worldly platform. Once in Worldly, there is no additional fee to share the SLCP with a brand on the FFC platform.
