Dear Business Partner,

because of our ethical principles, it is our goal to protect every human being involved in our supply chain. Human rights must be defended at all costs.
The legal opinion ‘Initiative Lieferkettengesetz’ immediately appealed to us, particularly because not all business-related human rights abuses are covered by German Law.

The paper proposes improvements for the judgment of liability and requires aligning a supply chain law with the introduction and definition of offenses. The law asks for the principle of due diligence. Human rights abuses due to a lack of care of a business should be punished.
We support the demands of the letter and see the opinion as a significant milestone against human misuse. Human dignity is inviolable. Please contact us directly in case you have questions about our policies to protect human rights.
