"Burlington will conduct annual inspections of factories engaged in the production of products where Burlington is the importer of record. The Company requires that all Burlington vendors review Burlington’s compliance procedures and practices to ensure compliance with the California Transparency in Supply Chains Act, as well as Burlington’s Code. Vendors must be able to demonstrate compliance at Burlington’s request and may be subject to periodic audits. While Burlington expects full compliance, any violations should be reported immediately to Burlington’s compliance counsel."
