[SID_269] Commercial Bakeries Corp Fighting Against Forced Labour and Child Labour in Supply Chains Act Report 2023
[SID_269] Introduction The Canadian Fighting Against Forced Labour and Child Labour in Supply Chain Act (the Act) requires that businesses state actions they have taken during the most recently completed fiscal year to prevent and reduce the risk of forced labour or child labour within their operations and supply chain
[SID_269] This report (Report) is solely for Commercial Bakeries Corp (CBC or the Company or we or our), which has an obligation to publish a report under the Act
[SID_269] This Report refers to the 2023 fiscal year end, being June 30, 2023 (the Reporting Year), and describes steps taken by the Company up to and until June 30, 2023
[SID_269] At CBC, we consider the respect of human rights to be a fundamental corporate responsibility and a value governing all of our activities
[SID_269] We recognize our responsibility to respect and protect the human rights of all people who support and intersect with our business, which is comprised of colleagues and employees in our facilities in addition to workers, including migrant and temporary labourers, in our supply chain network
[SID_269] Our customers trust that the products made in our facility come from suppliers that provide safe, fair, and ethical working conditions for workers
[SID_269] CBCs commitment to preventing and reducing the risk of forced and child labour applies to our network of facilities, our business partners and our supply chain network
[SID_269] We expect our business partners and suppliers (as well as their contractors, agents, subcontractors, sub-agents and labour agencies) to uphold these same principles within their operations and adhere to applicable human rights and employment standards laws
[SID_269] The steps taken this year include, but are not limited to, assessing the risks of forced labour and child labour in our activities and supply chains, and engaging with our supply chain partners on the issues of forced labour and child labour
[SID_269] Our approach to preventing modern slavery forms part of our wider corporate responsibilities
[SID_269] We are adopting procedures that will contribute to ensuring modern slavery does not occur in our business or supply chains
[SID_269] It is our expectation that organizations with whom we do business adopt policies to comply with the relevant legislation
[SID_269] Structure, Activities and Supply Chain Structure
[SID_269] CBC is a corporation incorporated in the Province of Ontario pursuant to articles of amalgamation under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario)
[SID_269] Our shares are not listed on any Canadian stock exchange, or any other stock exchange in the world
[SID_269] The Companys registered head office is located in Toronto, Ontario
[SID_269] Originally established in the early 1950s, CBC stands as a prominent manufacturing company specializing in the production of private label cookie products
[SID_269] Pioneering the private label concept in the 1970s, CBC has evolved into a leading private label and private brand supplier, serving a multitude of esteemed clients, and shipping high-quality products worldwide
[SID_269] Activities CBC is exclusively dedicated to this niche, which serves a vast portion of North America
[SID_269] CBCs diverse product line caters to evolving consumer preferences, including an array of recently popular varieties tailored to health-conscious consumers
[SID_269] Notably, since 1995, CBCs research and development team has
[SID_269] spearheaded the creation of a line of delicious sugar-free cookies, further expanded to encompass gluten- free and all-natural organic options, as well as convenient portion control packs
[SID_269] With certifications as an organic and kosher facility, CBC adheres to the highest quality standards
[SID_269] Moreover, CBC also transitioned to a peanut-free facility in January 2011, demonstrating the Company prioritization of consumer safety and inclusivity
[SID_269] With a global footprint extending beyond Canada to Asia, Europe, South Africa, Australia, the Caribbean islands, and the United States, CBC continues to strengthen its presence in key markets whilst upholding its reputation for exceptional product quality and customer satisfaction

[SID_269] As a leading private label cookie manufacturer in Canada, CBC bakes quality cookies, biscuits, and baked snacks for private label brands, club stores, regional and national retailers, quick-service restaurants, institutions, other food manufacturers, and more
[SID_269] Supply Chain The CBC product development team works closely with third party suppliers to develop and manufacture products
[SID_269] As well, CBC actively sources goods, including when CBC is the Importer of Record (the IOR), from the United States, the Philippines, Madagascar, Cte d'Ivoire, Indonesia, Malaysia, Mexico, Brazil and France
[SID_269] Policies, Programs and Due Diligence Processes As part of our due diligence processes, CBC strives to embed responsible business conduct into our diverse range of policies both within our company and, to the extent we are able to do so, with respect to our supply chains
[SID_269] Our selection criteria for new suppliers requires that a business with whom we choose to partner meet our standard of a reputable company
[SID_269] Suppliers are evaluated by our internal procurement team prior to partnership to ensure we maintain integrity throughout our supply chains to the best of our ability
[SID_269] Employment
[SID_269] We are committed to the safety and health of employees and we conduct our operations in compliance with applicable laws and regulations
[SID_269] Suppliers are expected to provide a safe working environment
[SID_269] Suppliers are expected to remain in material compliance with all health and safety laws applicable to the operation and use of the facilities at which products are manufactured on our behalf
[SID_269] Like with many food processing and manufacturing businesses, risks in our supply chain arise because of our limited visibility into our own suppliers supply chains
[SID_269] Recruitment and Selection Process The Companys recruitment process ensures the proper verification of age from government issued identification at multiple stages
[SID_269] In all cases, each applicant for employment is recruited, hired, and assigned based on merit without discrimination based on race, ancestry, place of origin, colour, ethnic origin, citizenship, creed, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, age, marital status, record of offences, family status, disability, or any other protected ground under the Ontario Human Rights Code (the Code)
[SID_269] The Company has taken steps to abide by and respect the principles set forth in the Code, the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act as amended from time to time as well as the Ontario Employment Standards Act 2000
[SID_269] Supporting our people Our employee code of conduct (the Employee Code of Conduct) requires all of us to act ethically and we expect employees to comply with legal requirements at all times, putting our values into practice in everything we do
[SID_269] Training Our employees receive regular tailored training on ethical topics and our policies
[SID_269] All new employees are assigned a mandatory onboarding training package, which includes training on all matters covered in the Employee Code of Conduct
[SID_269] Employees who are involved in the onboarding process in the procurement function are given on the job training to help ensure the process is performed correctly
[SID_269] Further Steps We plan to take the following steps in the future, some of which are nearly in place, and others, which will require a longer timeline, to further guard against the risk of modern slavery and trafficking
[SID_269] we are in the process of finalizing our supplier code of conduct (Supplier Code of Conduct) and we are committed to working with current and prospective suppliers to ensure ethical business practices and a clear understanding and appreciation of the values that will be reflected in our Supplier Code of Conduct
[SID_269] we will begin to provide ongoing training to all procurement personnel to ensure a deep understanding of the Supplier Code of Conduct, our principles and our values
[SID_269] we will continue to examine ways to improve our assessment and management of risks in various jurisdictions through awareness, training, best practices or other assistance to our employees and suppliers; and
[SID_269] take steps to improve our ongoing due diligence procedures in relation to modern slavery risks in our supply chain
[SID_269] This includes developing a process by which we can assess and audit the compliance of our suppliers with the Supplier Code of Conduct being developed, and through that, compliance with the Act
[SID_269] Assessing and Managing Risk We recognize that the risk of modern slavery being used in operations varies by industry and jurisdiction and that those risks are elevated in the food processing and manufacturing sector
[SID_269] We acknowledge that the raw materials procurement process does not often take place from our direct suppliers, but may occur further down the supply chain
[SID_269] This reduces our visibility over the raw materials used within our supply chain to produce components used in manufacturing
[SID_269] In order to assess and manage the serious risks associated with forced labour and child labour effectively, CBC arranged for a third-party social compliance audits under the Sedex Members Ethical Trade Audit (SMETA)
[SID_269] CBC also received a satisfactory rating from UL Solutions, which completed an audit
[SID_269] Remediation Measures
[SID_269] To date, we have not identified any specific instances of forced labour or child labour in the supply chain
[SID_269] As such, no remediation activities have been undertaken by us and no remediation measures have been taken to remediate any loss of income that resulted from measures taken by us
[SID_269] Training provided to employees on forced labour and child labour
[SID_269] Employees are familiarized with the Companys policies and procedures regarding ethical labour practices, including our zero-tolerance policy towards forced labour and child labour
[SID_269] They are trained on how to report any concerns or suspicions they may have through appropriate channels
[SID_269] Other offerings in this respect include
[SID_269] Annual Refresher Training It is crucial to stay updated on issues like forced labour and child labour undergo regular training to recognize and address it effectively
[SID_269] With our annual refresher training we try to reinforce knowledge, update on legal changes, and share new strategies for prevention and intervention
[SID_269] These sessions typically cover topics such as identifying signs of forced labour and child labour, understanding relevant laws and regulations, learning about vulnerable industries and regions, and exploring best practices for reporting and addressing instances of forced labour and child labour
[SID_269] With regular training CBC ensures that individuals and organizations remain vigilant and equipped to combat this serious issue
[SID_269] Responsibilities and Accountability Employees are informed of their responsibilities in upholding ethical labour practices and the consequences of non-compliance
[SID_269] They understand that adherence to these standards is essential to maintaining CBC's reputation and integrity
[SID_269] Assessing Effectiveness
[SID_269] CBC is in the process of implementing a number of measures to prevent and reduce the risk that forced labour or child labour is used in our activities and supply chains
[SID_269] While we have not yet taken any actions to assess the effectiveness of those actions, CBC intends to assess its effectiveness in preventing and reducing risks of forced labour and child labour in its activities and supply chains at a later stage
[SID_269] We acknowledge our responsibility to combat forced and child labour and are committed to acting ethically and with integrity and transparency
[SID_269] We are working to put systems and controls in place to safeguard against any form of forced or child labour taking place within the business or our supply chain
[SID_269] As of June 30, 2023, CBC has not faced situations of forced labour or child labour and has therefore not had to remedy and rectify such situations

[SID_273] In light of Radials role in the supply chain (primarily as a third-party logistics services provider), Radials forced/child labour supply chain risks are considered low and our policies and compliance infrastructure is properly calibrated to our level of risk
[SID_273] The company has adopted a Supplier Code of Conduct, which has been rolled out to Radials Canadian third-party staffing vendors

[SID_273] At this time, given our low risk profile for forced or child labour in our supply chain, we have not deployed dedicated training on forced or child labour in supply chains
[SID_273] The company regularly reassesses its risk profile and reviews it policies and compliance infrastructure
[SID_273] As such, our current training practices may change in the future, should we determine that training on forced/child labour risks becomes warranted
[SID_273] Likewise, given our low risk profile and role in the industry, we have not developed a specific methodology for assessing our effectiveness in ensuring that forced or child labour are not used in Radials supply chain
