Safe Working Conditions; Supplier Vendor Code of Conduct. We believe that every associate has the right to safe and humane working conditions , and we require all our suppliers to understand and comply with our Supplier Code of Conduct . SBH values our partnerships with suppliers and vendors and understands the impact they can have on our associates. Thus, SBH has included rules governing their conduct, both with respect to expectations while interacting with our associates, and, with our foreign suppliers, assurances that they too are providing a safe and healthy working environment for their associates. Whistleblower Policy : We have an Employee Concern Line – operated by an independent company – which allows for complaints to be made securely and anonymously. To further strengthen the integrity and protections of this confidential reporting mechanism, complaints about any Vice President or above are reported to an independent ombudsperson. The Employee Concern Line is only one part of our broad-scope effort to provide associates with resources to safely deal with and report any harassment, discrimination, bullying, retaliation, etc. We have formalized these procedures in our Freedom from Discrimination and Harassment Policy and our SBH Cares Policy , each of which reflects our core values and is made available to all associates. Our Supplier Code of Conduct reflects our whistleblower policy; we require vendors and suppliers to provide their employees with whistleblower protection without fear of retaliation for calling attention to legal or ethical issues. Our commitment to the safety of our associates is also evidenced by our background check policy for new hires, training and policy communications related to handling both associate and customer incidents, partnerships
