TELL ME ABOUT THE AUDIT

WHAT IS INVOLVED IN THE CERTIFICATION PROCESS?

Here’s what you can expect when you sign up as a member of the Sustainable Steel Council:

1. First apply for acceptance as an SSC member using the form on this website
2. The SSC Board will review and confirm your membership application at its monthly meeting (3rd Tuesday of each month).
3. We will issue an invoice for membership at the introductory level of 50% of your membership category fee.
4. If you are seeking the core SSC certification, the audit cost is included in your membership fee. If you are seeking a Green Star Responsible Products level accreditation, there is an additional charge of $1,000 plus GST, which reflects the additional support we provide for this level.
5. On receipt of payment our auditor will be in touch with you to arrange a time to speak with you and set a date for your Sustainable Steel Certification audit.
6. We will set up your user credentials to access the members section of the SSC website
7. We will provide information about the audit criteria and information you will need, and we will discuss it with you. We recommend that new members dive straight in and get your first audit completed as soon as possible rather than delaying.
8. After your audit result is approved, we will send you a Sustainable Steel Accreditation certificate along with logos you can use on your website and marketing material.
