Our Supply Chain

We publish a list of our Tier 1 and Tier 2 supplierfacilities and Tier 1 subcontractors biannually on
our website. This information can also be found on
the Open Supply Hub website.

Our Responsible Supply Chain (RSC) program
advances our commitments to fair labour practices
and the wellbeing of the people who make our
products. Our program is based on the principles of
the OECD Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible
Business Conduct and is designed to identify,
cease, prevent, or mitigate supply chain risks
throughout our value chain.2
The program is built on three pillars:•	Monitoring—Assessing and improving working
conditions in factories.
•	Integration—Integrating responsible purchasing
practices across enterprise strategies, processes,
and tools.
•	Collaboration—Working with multi-stakeholder
organizations, industry, suppliers, and brands tosupport systems change and impact.
We apply a continuous improvement approachto due diligence and continue to strengthen our
RSC practices and align with global standards.
For example, we joined the Fair Labor Association(FLA) in 2020, and we are working to become an
accredited member company by 2024. In 2022,
we commissioned industry experts to conduct athorough review of our global RSC program withrespect to forced labour and are implementing
evolved actions.

Modern Slavery Statement 2022-2023

We do not manufacture our own products; rather,
we rely on a consolidated, curated supply chain.
In 2022, we worked with 45 Tier 1 suppliers who
manufactured our products and 60 Tier 2 suppliers
who provided the fabrics for our products. In 2022,
39 percent of our products were manufactured
in Vietnam, 14 percent in Cambodia, 12 percent in
Sri Lanka, 8 percent in Bangladesh, 7 percent inIndonesia, and the remainder in other locations.
Forty-three percent of our fabrics originated from
Taiwan, 19 percent from China Mainland, 16 percent
from Sri Lanka, and the remainder from otherlocations. The factories that make our products
employ almost 300,000 people.

Responsible Supply Chain
Program

Per the OECD Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains in the Garment and Footwear Sector, supply chain risks are defined as risks of harm
to individuals, other organizations and communities in relation to human rights, labour rights and the environment.

Risk Assessment and Due
Diligence (Verification)
Identifying risks

We monitor and assess risk as follows:•	
Sector and sourcing region: We monitor
general and specific sector risks across sourcing
regions to identify relevant risks and informour decisions. Where our monitoring identifies
potential severe risks, we conduct heighteneddue diligence. Prior to entering a new sourcing
region, we conduct an in-depth risk assessment.
Where certain risk factors are present, we may
choose not to source from that country or region
and/or develop targeted strategies to manage
the risks identified.
•	
Stakeholder engagement: Through ourmemberships in industry and multi-stakeholder
initiatives (e.g., Fair Labor Association, American
Apparel & Footwear Association, Sustainable
Apparel Coalition, Responsible Labor Initiative),
we collaborate and engage with industry
partners, civil society, stakeholder groups, andpeer brands to identify, evaluate, and addressrisks, including modern slavery and forced
labour.

• Internal data and expertise: Our global
Responsible Supply Chain team is based in key
sourcing regions and global head offices andis responsible for conducting or overseeing
facility assessments to verify VCoE compliance,
supporting the remediation of issues, andinforming global impact programs. Theirknowledge directly informs our understanding of
local and regional risks.

Supplier Selection and Certification
We take great care to select and work with valuesaligned suppliers and collaborate to build or
enhance supplier capacity to meet and exceed
compliance requirements. We have an extensive
process for approving new suppliers and willapprove a new supplier only if they successfully
meet the requirements of our New Vendor Approval
Process (NVAP), a holistic process throughwhich we evaluate suppliers from a social andenvironmental, sourcing, quality, and production
perspective at the facility level.

Modern Slavery Statement 2022-2023

Because we do not manufacture our own products,
we consider the greatest risk of modern slavery to
exist in our product supply chain. As part of ourdue diligence approach, we conduct regular humanrights and social risk mapping across our supply
chain. We assess known sector risks and other risks
that may be prevalent in a particular geography or
production process. We also look at the economic,
social, and political contexts across sourcing
regions, as well as other indicators that could
signal increasing severity of risks and impacts. This
enables us to identify and prioritize actual andpotential impacts and informs the way we assess
our suppliers and drive improvements and change
through our global impact programs.

•	
Maker Grievance Reporting Mechanism: Ourgrievance mechanism provides a way for individuals
and organizations in our supply chain to raise noncompliance issues related to our VCoE. We review
all cases, take action where appropriate, and thenanalyze cases and incorporate the learnings into
our broader ongoing understanding of risks in our
supply chain.

Our VCoE prohibits the use of unauthorized
subcontractors or homework. We require all
subcontractors to be approved by lululemon
and undergo RSC assessments. Suppliers are
required to monitor subcontractor compliance withlululemon’s VCoE.
Before beginning a relationship with lululemon,
suppliers and their subcontractors sign a Certificateof Acknowledgement and Agreement certifying
they understand and will conform with the VCoE
requirements and, if applicable, the FMW Standard.

This statement has been published for the 2022-2023 financial year in accordance with Section 54 of the Modern Slavery Act 2015 (UK), the California
Transparency in Supply Chains Act 2010 (US), and the Modern Slavery Act 2018 (Australia).

4Supplier Assessments (Audits)
All facilities producing for lululemon are regularly
assessed against the requirements of our VCoE
Compliance Benchmarks. Our policy is to assess
all Tier 1 and Tier 2 facilities every 12 months at aminimum. Additional assessments may be triggeredby certain risks or grievance investigations.
Subcontractor re-assessment frequency is basedon risk factors such as geography, production
processes, or elevated risk of severe issues such as
forced labour or foreign migrant workers.

Our RSC assessment tool evaluates facility
performance against the ILO’s 11 forced labour
indicators. In regions with elevated risk, such as thepresence of foreign migrant workers, we include
additional checks pertaining to hiring channels
and recruitment fees. During on-site assessments,
we evaluate the working and living conditionsof foreign migrant workers and give special
consideration to benefits (e.g., social security,
pension payments), as well as inclusive working
practices and worker-management communication.
In 2022, we carried out 452 RSC assessments; 74
percent were conducted by our internal RSC team,and 26 percent were conducted via nominatedthird-party assessors. The FLA carried out
assessments of five percent of our Tier 1 facilities.
If an issue is flagged in an assessment, we workwith the supplier on a Corrective and Preventative
Action Plan (CAPA).

Addressing risk
Training and Capacity Building
We build supplier knowledge and capacity throughregular training. On an annual basis, we:•	Train all new Tier 1 and 2 suppliers, through ouronboarding process, on our RSC program and
VCoE expectations, management systems andmeasures needed to remediate issues, and CAPA
commitment delivery expectations.
•	Provide existing suppliers with training on any
RSC program updates and new tools.
•	Deliver targeted training to address specificregional risks, such as forced labour, and support
facility improvements.
In 2022, we delivered 36 mandatory suppliertrainings on program updates and our evolved
assessment tool. We also provided all Tier 1 andTier 2 suppliers with mandatory e-learning on
forced labour prevention.

Modern Slavery Statement 2022-2023

Assessments are conducted by either our internal
RSC team or nominated third-party assessors.
Selected facilities are also assessed throughour membership with the FLA. Assessments arecarried out on-site and include visual inspectionsof the entire facility, including on-site dormitories,
documentation reviews, and interviews withmanagement and workers. If an assessment
indicates potential for severe risks, we conduct
heightened due diligence.

To strengthen our RSC program, in 2022, weenhanced our assessment tools to enable moredetailed data analysis on non-compliances, root
causes, and other trends. In 2023, we will roll out anew data management system.

Internally, we build the requisite organizational
competencies through training on human rights
and our RSC program requirements. Our RSC
team provides training for key lululemon decisionmakers from supply chain and product functions on
updates to the RSC program, strengthening theirability to support all stages of responsible supply
chain management, including identification andmanagement of human rights-related risks, such as
forced labour. In 2022, 190 employees were trainedon the updated RSC program, and 229 internal
decision makers participated in mandatory forced
labour training.

This statement has been published for the 2022-2023 financial year in accordance with Section 54 of the Modern Slavery Act 2015 (UK), the California
Transparency in Supply Chains Act 2010 (US), and the Modern Slavery Act 2018 (Australia).

5Corrective Actions and Accountability
We require our suppliers to develop CAPAs toaddress issues identified through internal, thirdparty, or shared assessments. Our approach tocorrective action is one of root cause analysis
and continuous improvement, with the intentionof creating positive and lasting change. Our RSC
team reviews and approves the CAPAs and offers
guidance to effective solutions where required. We
verify supplier implementation through document
review or on-site assessments.

Responsible Purchasing Practices
We recognize that our purchasing practices canimpact our suppliers and in turn, their makers—
the people who make our products. We review
our purchasing practices alongside suppliers’
responsible supply chain performance. This helps
us identify areas where we can strengthen our own
practices to mitigate risks of adverse impacts.
In 2022, we created a cross-functional internal
Responsible Purchasing Practices Task Force,
which is working to advance applied practices
and formalize a Responsible Purchasing Practices
Policy and accountabilities. We also participatedin the Better Buying Purchasing Practices Index.
Together, with suppliers and internal product andRemedyWe address supplier human rights complaints
that are material, substantiated, and raised
through legitimate processes. These issues may
be related to our VCoE, or potential/actual breachof international human rights directly linked tolululemon’s operations, products, or services.
Where possible, every complaint is investigated,
and a response or resolution is provided to thecomplainant. When appropriate, we provide for orcooperate in remediation within our supply chain.
We require all our suppliers to have site-levelgrievance mechanisms available to their workers.
Through our membership in the FLA, makers
and their advocates can also raise complaints via
the Fair Labor Association’s Complaint Channel.
In these cases, the FLA will work with us toinvestigate, remediate, and resolve complaints.
Our Maker Grievance Reporting Mechanism(sustainablepartner@lululemon.com) enables
individuals and organizations in our supply chain
to raise non-compliance issues. Makers can also
raise grievances directly with regional RSC teammembers or representatives.

Modern Slavery Statement 2022-2023

We assess whether risks can be addressed by
the supplier via a CAPA or if we need to support
through additional measures. Our goal is to always
work in partnership with suppliers to resolve
issues. However, we maintain the right to terminate
supplier relationships in cases of severe or
persistent non-compliance.

supply chain leaders, we reviewed the results of
the Index and identified areas of opportunity within
design and development, planning and forecasting,order placement and costing, and sustainable
partnerships.

Employees of lululemon are strongly encouraged toreport actual or perceived violations of lululemon’s
Global Code of Business Conduct and Ethics. We
provide an Integrity Line for anonymous reporting.

This statement has been published for the 2022-2023 financial year in accordance with Section 54 of the Modern Slavery Act 2015 (UK), the California
Transparency in Supply Chains Act 2010 (US), and the Modern Slavery Act 2018 (Australia).

Risk Mitigation
We take a zero-tolerance stance against forced
labour, defined by the ILO as “any work or service
which is extracted from any person under the
menace of any penalty, and for which the said
person has not offered themselves up voluntarily.”
Our VCoE Compliance Benchmarks set out theminimum requirements for all suppliers and include
the ILO’s 11 forced labour indicators. They also
include the employer pays principle, which statesthat fees and other costs associated with theemployment of workers—including recruitment,
travel, and processing fees—shall be the sole
responsibility of the supplier. We are a signatory of
the AAFA’s and FLA’s Commitment to Responsible
Recruitment.

Agricultural Commodities
There are high numbers of lower-skilled workers
in the agriculture sector, and informal work
arrangements often exist. Depending on regional
infrastructure and other factors, the potential for
limited oversight and protection can lead to anincreased risk of forced labour. We have identified
the potential risk of forced in the production ofagriculture-based raw materials, such as cotton
and rubber. Our policy is to source agriculturalcommodities from regions where there is a lower
risk of forced labour, as determined through our risk
assessments, and to certify commodities throughthe adoption of appropriate industry traceability
standards.
Cotton represents approximately 16 percent of
our raw material usage by volume. Our approachcontinues to focus on sourcing cotton fibre from
Australia, South America, and the United States.
We are also working to adopt more responsiblygrown cotton platforms in our portfolio, including

Rubber constitutes approximately one percent of
our raw material usage by volume. One hundred
percent of the natural rubber we sourced in 2022
came from Forest Stewardship Council (FSC)
certified forests in Guatemala and Sri Lanka. FSC
certification prohibits the use of forced labour.
We continue to expand our traceability work to
support and facilitate our due diligence approach
to identifying, preventing, and mitigating modern
slavery risks in the upstream supply chain of our
suppliers. See our annual Impact Report for more
information on traceability.

Foreign Migrant Workers
Makers who leave their homes to work in anothercountry or region can be vulnerable to forced
labour through unethical recruitment, hiring,and employment practices, such as withheld
documentation or the lack of repayment of
recruitment fees.
We have identified foreign migrant workers as an atrisk group in specific sourcing locations, including
Japan, Korea, Taiwan, and Thailand. In theselocations, we are working with suppliers and theirsubcontractors to align with our Foreign MigrantWorker Standard. We are also providing guidancein ethical recruitment and ongoing employment offoreign migrant workers, including the eradicationof recruitment fees.

Modern Slavery Statement 2022-2023

To mitigate risks of forced labour in our supply
chain, we are focusing primarily on two areas:

traceable cotton initiatives, as well as organic andregenerative cotton chain of custody models.

Since 2017, we have been supporting Tier 1 andTier 2 suppliers in Taiwan through a Foreign
Migrant Worker “No Fee” program, with the aim oferadicating recruitment fees for foreign migrant
workers. As of 2022, all 33 of our Taiwanese supplierfacilities complied with the program’s no-fee
requirements. We are currently expanding the “NoFee” program to Japan, Korea, and Thailand.

This statement has been published for the 2022-2023 financial year in accordance with Section 54 of the Modern Slavery Act 2015 (UK), the California
Transparency in Supply Chains Act 2010 (US), and the Modern Slavery Act 2018 (Australia).
