== Introduction ==
 
  
The GLOBALG.A.P. Risk Assessment on Social Practice (GRASP) is a voluntary assessment that can be conducted at the same time as a GLOBALG.A.P. audit.
 
 
Its main objective is to raise awareness on social practice in primary production. The outcome of the assessment doesn’t affect the GLOBALG.A.P. certification, but serves as additional information to supply chain partners.
 
 
 
'''Preconditions'''
 
 
* GRASP is only available for countries, where a GRASP National Interpretation Guideline was developed. This means that GRASP can be added as a product only for producers that are registered in countries with a GRASP National Interpretation Guideline. The list of available countries, the guidelines, other GRASP documents including GRASP Control Points and Compliance Criteria, Checklists and Implementation Guidelines can be found on the GLOBALG.A.P. homepage, [http://www.globalgap.org/cms/front_content.php?idcat=126 GRASP Standard].
 
 
* GRASP assessments can only be performed by approved GLOBALG.A.P. auditors/inspectors. The GRASP online training is available in the [http://cb.globalgap.org/ CB-extranet].
 
Please, note: Has any auditor/inspector completed the GRASP online test successfully, the CB-administration team has to be notified so the the Certification Body can be unlocked for GRASP in the database and they can plan, download and upload checklists. The GLOBALG.A.P. Secretariat will constantly monitor the formal qualification status of the auditors that have GRASP as scope.
 
 
 
'''GRASP access rights'''
 
 
Results of the GRASP assessment and the address data of the assessed producer will be visible by default to market participants, who have signed the terms of reference for the use of GRASP assessment results (See GRASP General Regulations V 1.1, Annex II.-III.). GRASP results will only be displayed, if the producer/producer group has a valid GLOBALG.A.P. Integrated Farm Assurance certificate.
 
 
If you have any questions or difficulties, please send a mail containing as many details as possible to the [mailto:database_support@globalgap.org?subject=Question%20to%20Article%20123 customer support].
 
 
 
== First steps in the database: acceptance, checklist/audit planning ==
 
 
As the four-eye-principle is not a requirement for the GRASP assessment, the [[CB-Auditor]]/[[CB-Inspector]] can also plan the assessment - however only if they have also the [[CB-Committee]] role for GRASP. 
 
The [[CB-Executive]] can assign GRASP as a new scope to the [[CB-Auditor]]/[[CB-Inspector]] with the required qualification as described in ''Entering subscopes and schemes'' in [[Masterdata]].
 
Please, note: The scheme GRASP V1.1 Jan_11 appears only, if the Certification Body is unlocked for it.
 
 
In order to be able to plan and upload a GRASP checklist, first GRASP as a product needs to be accepted in the database for the producer/producer group, who shall be assessed. Here the same rule applies as for IFA certification. If you accept GRASP for the first time, you may need to enter a date in the past for this acceptance (otherwise the date of acceptance will be the day, on which you enter the date). This first date of acceptance is crucial for entering the date of audit, because the acceptance date has to precede the date of audit. Otherwise you will not be able to upload the checklist.
 
 
GRASP has to be selected the same way as describe in [[Manage products]]: GRASP is a separate standard with the subscope and "product GRASP". There is of course one difference to IFA:
 
as a quantity the number of employees have to be entered. Please, note that every employee counts: full time, part time, seasonal workers - each of them count as one employee.
 
 
One special case would be if an employee is working for a producer group, but is also on loan to some group members. In this case crucial is with whom does this worker has contract: if the group is the conractor, the worker counts only for the group - not also for the group members.
