Company’s ethical standards. The Company remains committed to working with its 
suppliers to address working conditions and worker exploitation, including forced labour 
and human trafficking.

As a condition of doing business with the Company, every manufacturer and producer of 
goods for the Company must adhere to the Company’s Supplier Code of Business Conduct (the “Supplier Code”). Suppliers are, at minimum, expected to comply with the standards set out in the Supplier Code and all applicable laws and regulations, including laws prohibiting the use of forced labour, child labour, prison labour and human trafficking.
The Supplier Code requires suppliers to identify the factories and contractors, domestic or 
foreign, used to produce merchandise for the Company and to certify that each factory 
operates in compliance with all applicable labour laws. The Company does not allow the 
importation of any merchandise manufactured with convict, forced, indentured labour, 
illegal child labour or through human trafficking.
The Company reviewed its Supplier Code in the last financial year and continued to provide training to suppliers on the Supplier Code and the Company’s audit program. 

The Company’s Workplace

The Company is dedicated to providing a safe and respectful working environment for its 
employees. Violence, coercion, or intimidation in the workplace is not tolerated and the 
Company is unequivocally opposed to forced labour, in any form.
Responsible recruitment practices and internal policies and procedures are maintained to 
ensure the Company’s compliance with all applicable employment legislation related to staff recruitment and working conditions.
The Company also requires all employees to act ethically. The employee Code of Business 
Conduct (the “Employee Code”) promotes the Company’s principles of non-discrimination 
and respect for human rights in the workplace, addressing issues of harassment, coercion, 
forced labour and child labour.
To ensure an appropriate understanding of the ethical standards the Company expects all 
employees to uphold, the Company requires all employees to review and sign the Employee Code on an annual basis.

Monitoring Compliance

The Company continues to actively monitor its suppliers’ compliance with the Supplier 
Code through its multi-layered audit and review process. By signing the Supplier Code, 
suppliers agree to conduct self-surveys of key legal compliance and workplace
safety issues, including compliance with the Company’s prohibition on human trafficking and the use of convict, forced, indentured labour or illegal child labour. The Supplier Code further requires suppliers to designate one or more of its officers to inspect, on an annual basis, each facility utilized in the production of merchandise for the Company. The Company or specially trained third parties also perform on-site inspections of supplier facilities.

By maintaining its Policy on Whistle-Blowing and its whistleblower hotline, the Company 
ensures that any complaints regarding forced labour and human trafficking can be 
addressed. The Policy on Whistle-Blowing and the whistleblower hotline provide 
mechanisms by which any person can raise concerns about the Company’s workplace or
its suppliers’ practices. Complaints may be reported confidentially by mail, email or by 
utilizing the Company’s anonymous whistleblower hotline. Employees may report 
complaints to their supervisor or human resources department, or bypass line management and report concerns directly to the Chairperson of the Audit Committee and the CEO & President of Dorel Industries Inc.

Accountability

Accountability standards and procedures are maintained and enforced against employees 
or suppliers who fail to meet the Company’s ethical requirements, including those related to forced labour, slavery, and human trafficking. Any supplier that fails or refuses to comply with these standards is subject to immediate cancellation of all outstanding orders with the Company, as well as termination of the supplier’s business relationship with the Company. 
As with all violations of policy, the Company investigates employee noncompliance and 
takes appropriate action up to and including termination.

Conclusion

The Company remains steadfast in its commitment to human rights and will continue to 
evaluate its policies and practices to ensure that the use of slavery and human trafficking 
does not take place in its supply chains and operations.
