    Another SCC UK Auditor-Accountant Quits
    Due to Forced Labor From China Supply Chain.
    Static Control, a major supplier of aftermarket imaging products for printers and copiers, is facing a crisis in its UK branch after its 2nd auditor in a year, BDO LLP, resigned over ethical concerns. Previously Grant Thornton UK LLP, resigned in March 2023. Both auditors cited evidence of forced labor in the company’s supply chain, particularly from the Xinjiang region of China, where widespread human rights abuses have been documented.

    Forced labor is a serious violation of human rights that involves coercing people to work against their will, often in harsh and unsafe conditions and with little or no pay. The auditor’s resignation highlights the gravity of the accusations and the growing pressure on companies to ensure ethical labor practices in their global supply chains.

    The auditor quit after discovering possible breaches of forced labor standards in Static Control’s supply chain. The company has not publicly commented on the details of the allegations, but the resignation indicates a major issue within the organization.

    Companies have a moral and legal duty to make sure that their supply chains are free of exploitative practices such as forced labor. Such practices not only violate international labor norms but also damage a company’s reputation and expose it to legal risks.

    Static Control’s reaction to these allegations will be under scrutiny. It is unclear how the company will deal with the problem and what steps it will take to prevent similar incidents in the future.

    As the demand for ethical labor practices in supply chains increases, companies must prioritize responsible sourcing and strong monitoring mechanisms to protect human rights and maintain the quality of their operations. The auditor’s resignation serves as a stark warning of the need for caution and accountability in today’s globalized business environment.
