California Transparency in Supply Chains Act:
Corporate Disclosure in Compliance with SB 657 California Transparency in Supply Chains Act (Human Trafficking and Anti-Slavery)
The California Transparency in Supply Chains Act (the “Act”) requires large retailers and manufacturers doing business in California to disclose on their websites their “efforts to eradicate slavery and human trafficking from [their] direct supply chain for tangible goods offered for sale.” The Act applies to any company (defined as retail sellers or manufacturers) doing business in the State of California that has annual worldwide gross receipts of more than $100 million dollars (U.S.).
While American Regent, Inc. has its own Policies and Procedures that cover the Act, we fall under the jurisdiction of our parent company, Daiichi Sankyo, Inc., which discloses its Daiichi Sankyo Group Human Rights Policy.
Verification: All new vendors must complete a Human Rights questionnaire. Our existing vendors will complete this questionnaire retroactively.
Auditing: We institute a risk-based audit program to evaluate supplier compliance with our Company’s standards for labor and human rights.
Certification: Beyond requiring suppliers to abide by the Standards of Business Conduct and Ethics for Third Parties (all required vendor users and new required vendor users as part of the mandatory compliance training) and complete the Human Rights questionnaire, we do not currently require any additional certifications.
Internal Accountability: At our Company, all employees are responsible for: 1) adhering to the values and standards set forth in our own U.S. Standards of Business Conduct (SOBC); 2) complying with all relevant Company polices; and 3) raising compliance concerns. Employees may raise concerns to their supervisor, Human Resources, Legal or Corporate Compliance. They are also encouraged to Speak Up at ari.ethicspoint.com to report concerns. We investigate all reported allegations of misconduct. Violations of the SOBC or policies may result in a variety of corrective actions and in some cases may result in disciplinary action up to and including termination of employment.
Training: We train all employees on the SOBC through a series of compliance training courses. We also provide training on how to evaluate, escalate and mitigate potential supplier risks for labor and human rights to those that have responsibility for supplier selection and management.
