A **Disney ILS audit** (International Labor Standards) is an audit process Disney uses to ensure that factories manufacturing Disney-branded products meet stringent labor and environmental standards. Commonly referred to as a **Disney social compliance audit**, **Disney factory audit**, or simply a **Disney audit**, this process upholds Disney’s commitment to ethical and compliant production.
1. Disney Factory Audit Process
The **Disney factory audit** process generally involves three steps:
- **On-site Inspections**: Auditors assess the factory’s fire safety, workplace environment, and environmental conditions.
- **Documentation Review**: Auditors review key documents, requiring originals (not copies) to ensure their authenticity and completeness.
- **Employee Interviews**: Auditors select employees randomly to assess working conditions, human rights practices, workplace safety, and benefits policies.
### 2. Disney Social Compliance Audit File Checklist
To pass the **Disney social compliance audit**, factories must provide Disney with various documents to verify compliance. The required documents include:
- Attendance records for the last 12 months
- Payroll records for the past 12 months
- Personnel roster and employee personnel files with employment contracts
- Social insurance receipts, rosters, and certificates of compliance
- Business license
- Fire inspection reports or fire compliance certificates
- Records of fire drills, emergency evacuation plans, and records of workplace accidents
- Environmental compliance certificates
- Factory rules or employee handbook

3. Precautions for Disney Audit Application
When preparing for a **Disney audit**, factories should be mindful of several important points to ensure compliance:
- **Subcontracting Regulations**: Manufacturers must have written permission from Disney to use subcontractors, who must also comply with Disney’s Code of Conduct.
- **Compliance for Subcontractors**: Any subcontractors producing Disney-branded products must undergo a Disney audit and adhere to Disney’s compliance guidelines.
- **Disney FAMA Requirement**: Manufacturers must submit a **Disney FAMA** (Facility and Merchandise Authorization) for outsourced production, certifying the factory as Disney-approved.
- **Obtaining FAMA Documentation**: If the FAMA form is not completed, the factory must contact their Disney licensee to obtain and submit it.
- **Individual FAMA for Each Factory**: Disney requires that a separate FAMA be completed for each facility involved in Disney-branded product manufacturing.
