The SLCA has taken the fi rst step towards a more harmonized approach with the
Handbook of Product Social Impact Assessment , even if the scientifi c community
has not yet found a methodological solution for all implementation steps. Indeed,
according to the LCA approach, more efforts have to be made to develop characterization factors which allow the translation of the inventory indicators (such as
Living Wage and Working Hours) into the impact categories (Human Well-being, or
Human Dignity).
