Human Rights

Doing the right thing for people means acting in alignment with our values and principles across both our own operations and the supply chain. We require that the people involved in making our products are treated fairly and with dignity and respect and that there is no child labor or forced labor. Our approach covers fair wages, benefits and work hours, worker residence conditions, freedom of association and collective bargaining, and access to communication channels for raising concerns over labor conditions. By leading with integrity, we seek to develop suppliers’ capability in these areas that have an impact on our industry and beyond.
