Higg FEM (Facility Environmental Module) is an environmental-performance assessment of a production operation – energy and emissions, water, wastewater, waste, chemicals and air emissions. We complete it.
It is an assessment, not a pass/fail certification – a verified, benchmarked score of how a production operation actually performs. It is used alongside audited certifications like SEDEX and GOTS.
FEM measures environmental performance; FSLM (Facility Social and Labor Module) measures social and labour conditions. Norquest completes the FEM; for social and labour we are audited under SEDEX 4-Pillar and LRQA ELEVATE.
