"We internally review our supply chain to evaluate modern slavery risks, and we conduct ongoing in-depth supplier assessments for new and existing vendors. These cover all aspects of the supply chain including health and safety, human trafficking, forced labour, child labour and other legal requirements and industry expectations."

"To ensure that our vendors uphold our VCoE requirements, our in-house experts and commissioned third-party assessors conduct announced, semi-announced, or unannounced assessments, as well as subsequent follow-up and verification visits. We assess all strategic finished goods and raw materials vendor partner facilities annually, covering approximately 80% of our production. The remaining facilities are assessed at least every eighteen months. We assess subcontractors selectively based on risk factors. We will broaden our assessments to include trim suppliers over the next three years."
