"Our Supplier Code of Conduct prohibits forced labor and human trafficking, including but not limited to, any form of prison, slave, bonded or forced indentured labor. Our Supplier Code of Conduct also emphasizes responsible recruitment practices including prohibiting recruitment fees and withholding of identity documents as well as freedom of movement, knowing these issues often contribute to forced labor."

Hershey is purchasing 100% certified and sustainable cocoa, and each certification program prohibits the use of forced

and illegal child labor.5
