"Any form of forced servitude is contrary to Company values. Abercrombie will not tolerate forced labor, slavery, or human trafficking. This is reflected in policies including our Human Rights Policy, Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, and Vendor Code of Conduct. These policies reflect our commitment to acting ethically and with integrity in all our business relationships and implementing and enforcing effective systems and controls to reduce the risk of any slavery and human trafficking taking place any where in our business or supply chains.

We partner with suppliers who respect local laws and share our dedication to utilizing the best practices in human rights, labor rights and workplace safety.

Additionally, in 2018 A&F Co. signed the new AAFA and FLA Commitment to Responsible Recruitment and resigned their updated commitment in early 2023, This states that we commit to work with our global supply chain partners to create conditions so that: no worker pays for their job, workers retain control of their travel documents and have full freedom of movement, and all workers are informed of the basic terms of their employment before leaving home and workers receive a timely refund of fees and costs paid to obtain or maintain their job.”

Further, our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics binds all employees to the following: “We also believe in respecting and protecting human rights wherever we operate. Ensuring that our products are only made in safe and responsible facilities is important to us. We only partner with third parties who respect local laws and share our dedication to upholding human and labor rights, as well as workplace safety. We never allow the use of child or forced labor in any of our operations or facilities or by our vendors or their subcontractors. We never participate in or condone human trafficking or slavery of any kind. We will never permit exploitation of children; physical, verbal, or emotional abuse; or involuntary servitude.”

"our contractual process requires every service provider to agree that all of their business dealings will be in alignment with our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics. Service providers are explicitly prohibited from inducing any Abercrombie employee to violate the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, and commit to same as part of their contractual arrangement with the Company."
