"The Standards for Suppliers currently cover several topics, including a requirement that suppliers exclude involuntary labor—including underage, forced, coerced, bonded, involuntary prison, exploited, trafficked or indentured labor—from their operations and supply chain. We incorporate these Standards into our supplier agreements."

 

"Walmart recognizes that responsible sourcing requires more than monitoring facilities for compliance. Walmart utilizes a multi-front approach focused on leveraging collaborations, promoting training and capacity building, and providing motivation to remediate and continuously improve."
