"UA employees, factories, suppliers, business partners, manufacturers are all expected to meet company standards and procedures regarding, and prohibiting, modern slavery – including those in the UA and FLA Codes – and may be held accountable for failing to comply with such standards and procedures. Effectiveness in meeting these standards and procedures is measured primarily through our previously described assessment process. Follow-up data analysis and remediation engagements between partner facility management and UA Sustainability and/or Sourcing teams are also critical for ensuring continuous progress and improvement."
