We have tremendously high expectations for the companies with which we do
business. These include a robust set of workplace standards that in many
cases go beyond the requirements of local laws. We expect our vertical
brand suppliers, vendors, and their subcontractors to adhere to the terms
of our
Vendor Code of
Conduct, avoid substances listed on our
Restricted Substance
List
and follow business practices consistent with our
Human Rights
Policy.
DICK’S Responsible Sourcing teammates conduct supplier visits to assess
performance, help remediate issues and provide consulting assistance
through educational and outreach training sessions. We aim to help
suppliers improve; however, when necessary, we will terminate
relationships if we see evidence of serious or persistent poor compliance
performance, lack of transparency or lack of management cooperation.
