"We are well aware of the risks of modern slavery and human trafficking in global supply chains and have been actively monitoring and assessing the potential for adverse human rights impacts of human trafficking, forced labour and bonded labour for many years. We have clear and well-defined policies on human trafficking and slavery, and well-established due diligence processes for our own business and our supply chain, as well as a dedicated monitoring team within the company’s Global Legal Division. For more information on our forced labour and human trafficking policy and approach, see: http://www.adidasgroup.com/s/factory-workers"

pg. 2

"We measure our suppliers through an annual social compliance Key Performance Indicator. The indicator evaluates a supplier’s compliance with our Workplace Standards, which include a prohibition against the use of any form of forced labour, child labour or human trafficking. Information on the social compliance performance rating of our key strategic suppliers can be found in our annual report. Suppliers are also expected to apply appropriate due diligence measures to their subordinate subcontracting relationships to prevent and mitigate human and labour rights issues."
