In 2011, we developed our Supplier Code of Conduct,

which describes our human rights, ethical and

environmental expectations of first-tier suppliers,

including a prohibition on forced labor, and we initiated

our Responsible Sourcing Program.

This program engaged our first-tier suppliers around the world in improving

their sustainability performance through an industry-standard approach that

leveraged third-party, on-site social compliance audits to identify workplace

issues and drive change where risk is highest.

However, research shows that it is difficult to address the root causes of the

most complex sustainability challenges through audits alone – and, that it is

critically important to engage workers in identifying issues and shaping

solutions

We will continue to evaluate our facilities on a routine basis while expanding our

efforts to address potential risks. We engage independent auditors with

expertise in labor issues to assess our human rights performance in our

workplaces. Non-compliances that are identified are addressed. Our Responsible

Workplace Standard and Site Implementation Guide details our human rights

standards and expectations for our own workplaces, including a prohibition on

forced labor. We also seek to ensure that all Associates in Mars workplaces are

aware of and have access to our accredited Ombudsman program through which

they can confidentially and anonymously report any workplace issue.
