Framework overlap

Does API 1164 cover SA8000:2014?

You hold API 1164 and have been told to do SA8000:2014. Here is how much overlaps, control by control.

43% of SA8000:2014 you already have

API 1164 already covers about 43% of SA8000:2014, leaving 4 of 7 controls as genuinely new work.

Already covered 1 Likely covered 2 New work 4

What is genuinely new work

Nothing in API 1164 reaches these. This is the list to scope.

SAEIGHT-2
Forced or Compulsory Labour
SAEIGHT-4
Freedom of Association and Collective Bargaining
SAEIGHT-5
Discrimination and Disciplinary Practices
SAEIGHT-6
Working Hours, Remuneration

Management System, Worker Engagement, Continuous Improvement
SAEIGHT-1
Child Labour and Young Worker Protection
SAEIGHT-3
Health and Safety

How this is calculated

Already covered means a mapping runs from a control in API 1164 to that control. Likely covered means no direct mapping exists but both frameworks map to the same control in a third standard. New work means neither. We keep those separate rather than adding them into one friendlier number, because blending them would present a two-hop inference as a verified fact.

Coverage is not symmetric. Run it the other way and you will get a different number; both are correct.

From 332,959 cross-framework control mappings across 723 frameworks, 531 of them verified against their source documents. It does not tell you that you are compliant: a mapped control means the two standards ask for the same thing, not that you have done it.
