The Worldly benchmarking tool for the Higg FSLM allows users to compare their FSLM performance with all the industry data in the Worldly platform and gain deep insight into how their social and labor practices rank against the rest of the industry. It helps users measure their performance compared to industry averages and highlights areas of focus and improvement for facilities. Granular and filterable data will inform the facilities, manufacturing groups, and brands of areas of improvement and industry leadership so that they can make informed decisions on their pathway to becoming a leader in social and labor practices.
Same as the benchmarking tool for the Higg FEM, facilities, brands/retailers or large manufacturers will use this tool. Facility users can use it to compare their own posted FSLM with the industry average FSLM performance. Brands/retailers/large manufacturers can use it to compare all received shared and posted FSLMs with the industry average FSLM performance. However, they can’t compare a single shared and posted FSLM to all received shared and posted FSLMs in this tool.
The FSLM benchmarking tool is available for data benchmarking and includes all subsequent versions.
Navigation
Navigate to Assessments followed by Higg FSLM.
Next, select the Benchmarking tab.
Same as the FEM, the left side filter bar can set up the comparison conditions. The filters and information are from the Facility Profile section in the FSLM. By using the filters, users can view the Industry Benchmarking and Impact charts.
Industry Benchmarking
In the center of the page, see the ‘Aggregated Section Scores’, ‘Aggregated Step Scores’, and the ‘Aggregated Risk Scores’ if you scroll down. Across the benchmarking tool, your module data is shown in purple and the industry average is displayed in blue.
On the left, select one or multiple filters to narrow the industry data shown by module year, verification status, industry, and more. These filters allow you to compare your performance to facilities similar to yours.
For each section, hover over the chart to see more details:
- Upper = highest recorded score in our system
- Lower = lowest recorded score in our system
- Bottom Quartile = 25% of modules scored below this number
- Top Quartile = 25% of modules scored above this number
- Median = median score of all module
Aggregated Section Scores: Shows your total and individual section scores compared to industry data.
Aggregated Step Scores: Shows your total points received for each applicable step of the assessment.
Aggregated Risk Scores: Shows the points received on questions based on each risk category and total points received on meeting legal compliance. A higher score means the better the facility performed.
Impact
To access click on ‘Impact’ to go to the Impact tab.
On the Impact tab, the Trade Union and Collective Bargaining charts provide visibility to users.
Enabling users to see and compare how they are performing on these topics help expedite progress or highlight where they can perform better in these areas.
There are two charts within the tab:
The first chart is employees who are members of Trade Unions. This data is calculated by “foa-cb-2–3“ multiplied by Ref ID “FP-WOR-1.”
The second chart is employees covered under the Collective Bargaining Agreement. This data is calculated by Ref ID “wi-foa-41“ multiplied by Ref ID “FP-WOR-1.”
