Modern Slavery and Human Trafficking Statement
Introduction
Our mission at Rehlko, including its subsidiaries, is to contribute to a higher level of gracious living for those who are touched by our products and services. We believe better business and a better world are inextricably linked. Business can flourish only when human rights are protected and respected, and we have a responsibility to contribute to and ensure positive human rights impacts. This statement contains overarching principles that embody our commitment to ensure human rights are upheld within our operations and supply chain.
Our Business and Suppliers
Rehlko is a worldwide manufacturer of energy solutions. Accordingly, we have suppliers that span the globe, including suppliers located in Asia, North America, South America, Africa, Europe, and Australia.
Our Policies, Risk Assessment, and Training
We are committed to ensuring that there is no modern slavery or human trafficking in our supply chains or in any part of our business. Our Global Human Rights Policy reflects our commitment to acting ethically and with integrity in all our business relationships and to implementing and enforcing effective systems and controls to ensure slavery and human trafficking is not taking place anywhere in our supply chains.
We operate with several other policies, codes of conduct, and risk assessment measures to ensure that we are conducting business in an ethical and transparent manner.
These include:
Policies on anti-bribery, supplier conduct, supplier selection, corporate ethics, and equality and diversity.
A Supplier Code of Conduct which defines our expectations in our supply chain. We only do business with suppliers who have certified to us that their business practices are lawful, ethical and in compliance with the principles set forth in this Supplier Code of Conduct. All new direct suppliers also must pass a rigorous assessment process.
In addition, as part of our due diligence processes, Rehlko may undertake affirmative measures, such as on-site audits of production factories, to monitor compliance with our codes of conduct.
Our Ethics Helpline encourages associates to report illegal or unethical behavior. Any matters reported will be thoroughly investigated and appropriate action taken where necessary.
Our Global Human Rights Policy permits taking disciplinary action including dismissal of associates found to be in breach of this policy.
To measure our effectiveness, we report on performance indicators and any actions taken because of audits.
We provide training to our associates to ensure a high level of understanding of the risks of modern slavery and human trafficking in our supply chains and our business. Our associates are also required to complete an annual ethics training.
This statement is made pursuant to the U.K Modern Slavery Act 2015, California Transparency in Supply Chains Act of 2010, and constitutes our modern slavery and human trafficking statement for all additional regulations which require such disclosures. For more information, please visit Rehlko.
