　　BSCI full audits are valid for 2 years, unless follow-up audits are to be conducted. This is the case for factories that receive an overall rating of A or B.

　　Factories rated A and B are eligible to receive a Random Unannounced Check in the period between the two full audits.

　　C、D 或 E 级：

　　当工厂在全面审核后收到总评级为C、D或E时，工厂需要在60天内在平台上提交改善计划（依照下页的操作指引），该审核在进行跟进审核前有效。
