"In a bid to ensure compliance throughout the supply chain, Deckers includes its Ethical Supply Chain (ESC) Supplier Code of Conduct as part of its Manufacturing Agreement that it has with each factory. Deckers designed its ESC program in 2008 to help ensure that workers in the factories that manufacture its products are treated ethically and work in safe conditions, and to verify that its product supply chain (including the factories which manufacture its products) conform to fair labour standards, which of course preclude slavery and human trafficking. Deckers uses both an internal audit team and accredited third party auditors to regularly assess its factories’ compliance with our fair labour standards. Deckers monitors labour practices as part of the human rights portion of its factory audits (both announced and unannounced). Results from the audit are tallied into a scorecard which is then reviewed with each supplier."
