Walk into every RBA audit ready.
A code of conduct for electronics and related supply chains, covering labour, health and safety, environment, ethics and the management system. Audits are run by approved audit firms. Teamnet is the tool your compliance, operations and audit teams work in, so nothing about your people is missed. The auditor or certification body makes the call.
What your team wants on audit day.
The audit firm sees that hours, pay, fees and documents are under control for every worker, including those hired through agencies.
Where it breaks today.
Agency workers unseen
Recruitment fees and deposits happen at the agency, where your records do not reach.
Hours drift in peak months
A weekly hours limit is kept most weeks and missed in the weeks the auditor samples.
Evidence scattered
Hours, pay and training records come from three systems and a contractor's sheet.
What the audit asks about your people, kept every month.
RBA Code covers more than people. These are the requirement areas about workers, described in plain words, and the evidence Teamnet keeps for each.
| Requirement area | What it asks, in plain words | What Teamnet keeps every month |
|---|---|---|
| Freely chosen work | Freely chosen work, no recruitment fees charged to workers, no withheld documents. | Deposits, recruitment fees and withheld documents flagged; exit and final pay tracked per worker. |
| Age and young workers | No child labour, and protection for young workers. | Date of birth checked at joining; anyone under the age the law or the standard sets is flagged before entry. |
| Working hours and rest | Weekly hours and rest days within the limits. | Hours from the gate, the phone or the register, with overtime and weekly rest checked against the limits your company chose. |
| Wages and pay | Wages and benefits at least the legal minimum. | Each worker's pay read from the wage register and checked against the minimum for the state, with bank proof of payment. |
| Fair treatment and discipline | Humane treatment and no discrimination. | Warnings, deductions and exits recorded with reasons, so a pattern shows before an auditor finds it. |
| Grievances and worker voice | Workers can raise concerns. | Grievances raised from the Teamnet App, with who answered, what was done and when it closed. |
| Training | Health and safety training. | Who was trained on what and when, with expiry dates; the gate refuses entry when a required training has lapsed. |
| Contractor control | Agencies and contractors meet the same code. | Every contractor's month - registers, wages, deposits - read, checked and approved by your HR before the bill is paid. |
Anything off shows as Needs review with a plain reason, goes to the right person, and is fixed in place with who changed what kept on record.
What your auditor sees on audit day.
Any month, any worker
Pick a site and a month, then any person, and see their identity, hours, pay, training and medicals for that month.
Area by area
The evidence sorted by the RBA Code requirement areas above, with the source document beside each figure.
Read-only, on record
The auditor sees and exports; nothing can be changed, and every view is logged for your team.
What changes for your team.
- Contract workers are on the same record as your own staff, every month.
- A lapsed training or medical shows before the shift, not at the audit.
- Evidence is ready the day the auditor or customer asks, without collecting it again.
- Your people decide on every Needs review item; the auditor makes the call on the standard.
