Supplier Code of Conduct
Our Supplier Code of Conduct provides standards and guidelines of conduct for all suppliers doing business with us worldwide. Our reputation is built on honesty, integrity, quality and trust. We therefore expect that our supply chain partners to conduct themselves in the same manner, regardless of local business practices or social customs. The Supplier Code of Conduct sets out the minimum standard of business behavior expected so that suppliers act in ways that are ethical, corporately responsible and aims to ensure compliance with applicable laws and regulations.

While we strongly encourage you to identify yourself when reporting violations so that we may follow up with you, as necessary, for additional information and may adequately investigate and address the matter, you may report violations anonymously if you wish (unless anonymous reports are contrary to local law). We may be prevented from investigating and/or addressing matters raised in reports made anonymously, if contrary to the local laws of a particular country.
