Results of follow-up audits carried out at 16 suppliers in Europe, 23 suppliers in Latin America and 17 suppliers in Asia Pacific during 2010. Initial audits of the same suppliers were completed in 2009 and 2010. As in 2009, the outcome of the audits indicate considerable improvement by most suppliers yet insufficient improvement by a few. Other activities, such as training and practical consultation, are necessary to support further improvements among these suppliers.
