California Transparency in Supply Chains Act Disclosure

The California Transparency in Supply Chains Act of 2010 (SB 657) requires manufacturers and retailers doing business in the State of California to disclose information regarding their efforts to eradicate slavery and human trafficking from their direct supply chains. TAP is proud of the measures it takes to uphold the highest standards of conduct among its employees, business partners, and suppliers.

TAP’s efforts to eradicate slavery and human trafficking in its supply chain include the following:

• Written Policies and Procedures: TAP maintains written policies that strictly prohibit the use of slavery or human trafficking in its direct supply chain. Among other provisions, TAP’s Supplier Code of Conduct obligates all of its suppliers and vendors to comply with all labor laws, including laws against forced labor, slavery, and human trafficking. TAP has also issued a “Notice to Our Suppliers Concerning Slavery and Human Trafficking” reinforcing these policies and expectations.

• Accountability Standards: TAP will not conduct business with any suppliers and/or vendors found to be in violation of slave labor or human trafficking laws. TAP’s Code of Conduct permits the termination of a supplier for even a single violation and, likewise, permits a range of measures, up to and including termination, for TAP employees involved in similar misconduct.

• Internal Audits: TAP reserves the right to conduct internal audits and inspections to ensure compliance with its Supplier Code of Conduct.

• Employee Training: In coordination with its efforts to eliminate forced labor, TAP provides twill provide training on human trafficking and slavery to those employees with direct responsibility for supply chain management.

TAP will continue to update its policies and procedures as needed to ensure that it has appropriate safeguards against any mistreatment of persons involved in its direct supply chains.
