"Supplier Engagement: We engage with our suppliers to communicate our expectations and requirements regarding modern slavery risks. We provide training and support to help them understand and address these risks.

"Our Training and Awareness

Training and awareness are essential to upholding safe and ethical workplace conditions and to prevent human rights violations including modern slavery in our operations and supply chain. We provide training and awareness programs to our employees and suppliers to help them understand and identify modern slavery risks. These programs cover issues such as forced labor, debt bondage, human trafficking, and child labor, as well as our policies and procedures for addressing these risks.

In 2022, training was conducted for all levels of the ASICS Group, including human rights training for new employees, and divisions involved in procurement and production, and directors. In addition, debriefing sessions are held twice a year with each of the procurement and production departments of Footwear, Apparel & Equipment, and Onitsuka Tiger to share information and discuss human rights related risk trends and responsible purchasing."
