SUPPLY CHAIN

social impact

We share our vision and the environmental and social standards we promote with the entire production chain.

People are the real engine of production chains: we constantly work for a supply chain that respects human rights and the environment in which we live.

The Code of Interdependence

Since 2018, we have asked our first- and second-tier suppliers to sign our Code of Interdependence, in which we define the minimum requirements to be met in terms of environmental impact, social responsibility, protection of health and safety in the workplace, legal compliance and ethics.

For a fair, free and inclusive supply chain

The small and select circle of suppliers with which we collaborate is subject to social, as well as qualitative, evaluation by partners such as amfori BSCI, SMETA, WRAP and SA 8000.

We verify through third-party audits that all companies in our supply chain respect the right to health and safety of workers, the right to freedom of association and collective bargaining, ethical trade and fair remuneration, decent working hours, the protection of young people at work and the prohibition of child labour, in addition to the prohibition of forced labour and discrimination.

Based on the outcome of the audit, we support suppliers that may need assistance in the implementation of an improvement plan to resolve any critical issues that have emerged.
