The Labour Standards Assurance System
Assent’s LSAS solution simplifies compliance by continuously mapping and monitoring your supply chain, enabling you to achieve your supply chain sustainability goals.
LSAS Compliance
The UK National Health Service (NHS) developed LSAS to provide a mandate for labor standards in the medical supply industry. Compliance with LSAS requires deep knowledge of industry-specific best practices and regulations. Compliance with this strict regulation is essential to continue selling to the UK NHS.
