a individual
office
and manufactory. In
order to have a social responsibility
towards the people involved in production
processes has set up a "Code of Conduct".
- NORMATIVE
ELEMENTS
- ¡°Respect
Human Rights¡± is the normative element
of this ¡°Code of Conduct¡±.
- LEGAL
REQUIREMENTS
- We
need to follow our national laws.
If any contradiction is found between
the supplier¡¯s national laws and this
Code of
Conduct, please inform ours
for follow up.
- SOCIAL
ACCOUNTABILITY REQUIREMENTS
- (1) Child
Labour
- SX
avoids doing business with any company
engaged in using child labour in any part
of the production.
Child labour is understood as work
done by a child according to regulations
mentioned in ILO Convention 138 article
2-4.
In the event that a child would
be found working for a supplier or subcontractor,
we do request that a satisfactory solution
to improve the child¡¯s situation will
be found.
This solution must contain seizure
off labour, as well as responsibility
by the supplier to secure basic education
to the child in question.
- (2)

will not work with companies engaged in
the use of forced labour (personnel who
have not offered their labour voluntarily)
or who suffer illegal restriction (not
being free to withdrawn from the labour
contract).
- (3)
Disciplinary
Practices
- SX
will refrain from doing business with
companies engaged in the use of corporal
punishment, mental or physical coercion
or any other kind of abuse or humiliation
of employees
- (4)
Health
& Safety.
- Our
suppliers should provide the workers a
healthy working environment and appropriate
sanitary facilities. A
system to detect, avoid or respond to
potential threats should also be established
for their health and safety.
- (5)
Freedom
of Association & Collective Bargaining
- SX
emphasizes that under any conditions,
workers have the right to freedom of association
and bargaining

based on the working capabilities and
skills, without any discrimination on
gender, religion, race, etc.
- (7)
Working Hours & Compensation
- SX
emphasizes with their suppliers that wages
need to be paid in compliance with local
laws and meet the legal minimum standards.
The salaries should be sufficient
to meet the basic living needs and to
provide extra discretionary income.
The working hours for the personnel
shall not exceed the legal limits in the
country and overtime work needs to be
properly remunerated.
Personnel should be allowed at
least one free day in every seven day
period
- (8)

Responsibility

its suppliers and manufacturers to go
through and distribute this Code of Conduct
to all relevant personnel engaged in working
with our orders.
- MONITORING
& ENFORCEMENT

Principles:
Trust & Cooperation

respect these social standards.
Suppliers are expected do their
utmost to work towards their complete
implementation.
This applies to any possible subcontractor
as well.
- (2)
Monitoring
- SX
reserves the right to conduct audits held
by their auditing team or third party
auditors, to monitor and ensure the proper
compliance with this Code of Conduct.
- (3)
Non-Compliance
- SX
has the right to terminate the business
relationship if the supplier is failing
to comply with these ethical standards
and does not take corrective measure in
due time.
In case of minor non-conformance,
corrective measures should be taken within
an agreed time limit.
