Supplier Responsibility
Supplier Environmental and Social Responsibility Code of Conduct
Our Supplier Code, which is based on the Responsible Business Alliance’s Code of Conduct, is the foundation of our responsible sourcing practices. Our Supplier Code, along with our contract and purchase order terms, sets out our expectations regarding business practices and standards for our suppliers — including on labor and human rights, health and safety, environment and anti-corruption. We work collaboratively with our suppliers to help ensure that they adhere to our Supplier Code.

Respecting human rights
Our Human Rights Principles reflect our commitment to respecting human rights and avoiding complicity in any human rights abuse throughout our company, operations, supply chain and communities.
Our employment and supply chain practices and policies, including our Supplier Code, support the fundamental human rights principles of freely chosen employment, non-discrimination, the elimination of forced and underage labor, and the rights of workers to engage in peaceful assembly, organize, freely associate and bargain collectively, as articulated in the International Labour Organization (ILO) Conventions.
Respecting human rights is a shared responsibility, and we strive to align our approach and actions with the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights and ILO Conventions. We expect our suppliers to also respect internationally recognized human rights.
