We have teams for sourcing, engineering, quality, and social responsibility that are regularly engaged with our manufacturing partners. For manufacturing partners who are of strategic importance, we conduct a comprehensive audit that covers occupational health and safety, labor law compliance, as well as compliance with environmental regulations. When we discover issues, we work with the supplier to develop a corrective action plan with specific tasks and timelines. Through the consistent employment of these activities and in collaboration with our peers in the Responsible Sport Initiative, we've gained a better understanding of common challenges in our supply chain. This understanding helps us continue to improve our programs, our supplier's operations, and our industry.
As founding members of the World Federation of the
Sporting Goods Industry Responsible Sporting Initiative (RSI), we are collaborating with a coalition of leading brands and suppliers to create shared standards, tools, and a shared supplier database via the
Fair Factories Clearing House. The RSI has enabled us to quickly and efficiently improve labor and environmental performance in our supply chain, and it serves as a model for what's possible when we collaborate to address shared challenges. If you are a bike brand or supplier, we welcome your participation. Please contact:
