25 FEM Applicabilities Applicabilities: Only answer questions applicable to your facility type/processes Light/Heavy water user + water risk Domestic/industrial wastewater + treatment onsite/offsite Does facility have operations or production processes that emit air pollutants Does facility use chemicals in production processes Sustainable Apparel Coalition 25

26 Applicabilities Example: Water Section Questions requiring answer: Heavy Water User Light Water User 1. Select all water sources used by your facility X X 2. Has your facility set baselines for water use? If yes, select all water sources for which your facility has set a baseline. X X 3. Does your facility know what facility processes or operations use the most water? X 4. Has your facility set targets for reducing water use? If yes, select all sources of water for which your facility has set a reduction target. X 5. Does your facility have an implementation plan to improve water use? X 6. Has your facility reduced water withdrawal, compared with your baseline? Select all water sources that have been reduced. 7. Has your facility implemented a water balance or another analysis to evaluate the traceability of water intake vs. usage (i.e. which processes) and output (i.e. to wastewater treatment plant)?

27 FEM Performance Level Sections Must achieve Level 1 performance before moving on to Level 2-3 Level 1 Awareness, Understanding & Baseline Performance Level 2 Managing, Setting Targets/Goals Level 3 Leading Practices / Continuous Improvement Sustainable Apparel Coalition 27

28 FEM Scoring The scoring system of the Higg Index was designed to drive behavior changes. All points gained are intended to drive actions, decisions and practices that lead to better sustainability outcomes. Ø Module scoring will happen after you complete your module (starting January 2018) Interpreting Final Scores: Scores will be shown as percentages (%) of total points possible for your facility type. Because FEM now includes applicability tests means that facilities will not all answer the same number of questions. By showing points in terms of percentage, we enable more comparability between results. Each section is worth 100 points and is made up of three levels. Level 1 is worth 25% of the total possible points. (If applicability test stops at Level 1, then Level 1 is worth 100% of total possible points) Level 2 is worth 50% of the total possible points. Level 3 is worth 25% of the total possible points. More information on Higg FEM Scoring: Howtohigg.org > Higg Index Training > Higg FEM: Scoring and Applicabilities Sustainable Apparel Coalition 28
