It is awarded for a period of three years, following an audit carried out by the independent body PME Durable, which specialises in supporting small and medium-sized enterprises. The costs, invoiced directly by PME Durable following the audit, are payable regardless of the audit\u2019s outcome. They are a one-off payment and cover the entire validity period of the label, i.e. three years. The amount varies depending on the size of the company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>3 to 30 FTEs: <\/strong>CHF 1,800 \u2013 CHF 2,200 (1 two-hour meeting included)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>31 to 500 FTEs: <\/strong>CHF 2,400 \u2013 CHF 3,100* (1 two-hour meeting included)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>501 FTE or more: <\/strong>CHF 4,000 * (2 two-hour meetings included)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"is-style-alert-info\">* Important note: these amounts are estimates for non-certified organisations (ISO 9001 &amp; 14001, Ecoentreprise, B Corp, etc.). For companies that are already certified, the amounts will be lower. <br><br>Recertification fees are payable by your company and relate exclusively to the audit carried out by the independent expert PME Durable. These fees, which are set according to the size of your organisation (small: CHF 1,350, medium: CHF 1,950, large: CHF 2,350), are paid directly to the auditor.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\t<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":1645,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-3153","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vaud.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3153","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vaud.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vaud.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vaud.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/7"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vaud.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3153"}],"version-history":[{"count":14,"href":"https:\/\/www.vaud.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3153\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":21882,"href":"https:\/\/www.vaud.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3153\/revisions\/21882"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vaud.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1645"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vaud.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3153"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
