Supplier Code of Conduct 2024 | Joyson Safety Systems

Preamble
At Joyson Safety Systems, we are committed to
conducting our business sustainably and incompliance with applicable laws at all times. As a
global leader in mobility safety, we purchase raw
materials, commodities and services from suppliers
worldwide to ensure the ongoing success of ourcustomers by providing innovative solutions for
products and services which exceed industry
standards and meet customer requirements.
Joyson Safety Systems evaluates and engages
with qualified suppliers on an objective basis
grounded in fairness. When selecting suppliers,
we assess each supplier’s cost and ability tosatisfy our business and technical needs andrequirements, including our standards onsustainability and responsible business practices.
This Supplier Code of Conduct (Supplier Code)highlights important standards that are consistent
with Joyson Safety Systems’ values and applies topeople and companies that that do business with
Joyson Safety Systems (Suppliers). We expectthat our Suppliers will not only meet their contractual
obligations, but will comply with laws, regulations,and conduct themselves consistent with Joyson
Safety System’s Guiding Principles, Code of Ethics
and Business Conduct, and this Supplier Code. Our
Suppliers are required to familiarize themselveswith the Joyson Safety Systems Code of Ethics andBusiness Conduct.
Our Supplier Code is based on fundamental
principles of social, environmental andgovernance responsibility that are consistent
with applicable laws and international standards,
including the United Nations (“UN”) Guiding
Principles on Business and Human Rights, UN
Global Compact, International Labor
Organization (“ILO”) Conventions, Organisation
for Economic Co-operation and Development(“OECD”) Guidelines for Multinational
Enterprises and the OECD Due Diligence
Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains ofMinerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk
Areas, the Rio Declaration on Environment andDevelopment, as well as the Paris Agreement.
This Supplier Code is also based on the Drive
Sustainability/AIAG Automotive Guiding
Principles to Enhance Sustainability
Performance in the Supply Chain, theResponsible Business Alliance Code of
Conduct, and the harmonized Supplier Code of
Conduct developed by the European Associationof Automotive Suppliers (“CLEPA“).

One Code in the Supply Chain

JSS-GLOBAL-PR-ML-0001-003

Our vision is to achieve excellence, innovation,transparency and performance in a sustainable
manner.
People and the environment are our mostimportant resources. We strongly feel thatcompanies should fulfil their social
responsibilities and obligations to realize ahealthy and harmonious development between
enterprises and employees, enterprises andsociety, and enterprises and the environment.
As part of this, we are working together with our
stakeholders to attain the highest standards inbusiness integrity and the social andenvironmental performance throughout our
supply chain.
We have developed this Supplier Code toprovide guidance to our Suppliers on our values
and our expectations for their behavior. The
Supplier Code contains standards on businessethics, working conditions, human rights, healthand safety, environmental leadership and supply
chain due diligence for suppliers at all tiers. We
expect Suppliers to cascade the standards set
forth in this Supplier Code throughout their
supply chain.
To fulfill their responsibilities under the SupplierCode, suppliers should implement a
management system/s – defined as a
combination of policies, processes, functions,tools and internal controls – that help anorganization to control its operations, reachobjectives and ensure continuous improvement.
The management system should be designed toensure: (a) compliance with applicable laws,
regulations and customer requirements related
to the Supplier’s operations and products,
including conformance with this Code; and (b)identification and mitigation of operational risks
related to this Code.
Suppliers should aim to apply best industry
practices. At a minimum, they must always
comply with applicable laws and regulations,
including those relating to anti-corruption, antimoney laundering, antitrust and competition,
boycotts, conflict minerals, gifts, lobbying,
payments to government officials, political
donations, and other related regulations. If local
law sets higher standards than the SupplierCode, we expect Suppliers to follow the higher
standard. In situations when the Code sets
higher standards than those imposed byapplicable laws and regulations, the Codeapplies only to the extent permissible underapplicable mandatory laws and regulations.
Individual Suppliers may have their own

standards, codes and policies in addition to the
Supplier Code.
Joyson Safety Systems periodically takes steps
to assess Suppliers’ compliance with therequirements of this Supplier Code. Upon
request, Suppliers are required to provide
Joyson Safety Systems with materials andinformation to verify that they are operating andsourcing materials consistent with therequirements of the Supplier Code. Suchinformation may include, but is not limited to,environmental performance, supply chain
visibility and traceability, conflict minerals andextended minerals reporting templates, andproduct carbon footprint.

Business Ethics
Suppliers should uphold the highest standardsof integrity and operate honestly and equitably
throughout the supply chain.

corrupt practices in whatever form, including
offering or accepting bribes, excessive gifts or
hospitality or facilitation payments to or from any
party (private or government-affiliated). Our

form of influence. Invitations or gifts extended to
Joyson Safety Systems employees or relatedparties, if any, must be reasonable and suitablewith a view to scope and design, i.e., they must
be of low financial value, comply with applicablelaws and regulations, and reflect ordinary local
business customs. We also expect our suppliers
to refrain from asking Joyson Safety Systems
employees or related parties for any
inappropriate advantages.
• Preventing Conflicts of Interest: In businessdealings with us, we expect our Suppliers tomake decisions based on objective criteria only.

other topic. The grievance mechanism should
allow concerns to be raised anonymously,
confidentially and without retaliation.
