The **Disney Manufacturer Code of Conduct** establishes ethical standards for manufacturers producing Disney products, focusing on fair treatment, safe working conditions, and compliance with all applicable laws and regulations. Here are its core requirements:
### Key Standards for Disney Audits
– **Child Labor**: Manufacturers are prohibited from employing individuals under the age of 16 (or a higher age as required by local laws).
– **Voluntary Labor**: No form of forced or involuntary labor is tolerated, including prison, slave, or bonded labor.
– **Harassment and Coercion**: Workers must be treated with respect, free from physical, sexual, psychological, or verbal abuse.
– **Non-Discrimination**: Hiring, wages, promotions, and other employment practices must be free from discrimination based on race, religion, age, nationality, gender, political opinion, or disability.
– **Freedom of Association**: Workers have the right to freely associate, organize, and negotiate collectively without fear of retribution.
– **Health and Safety**: Manufacturers must provide a safe and healthy work environment, including drinking water, adequate lighting and ventilation, fire safety, and, when applicable, safe housing.
### Wage and Working Hours Compliance
Disney mandates that manufacturers adhere to legal wage and working hours regulations, ensuring that wages meet the minimum legal or industry standard. Maximum work hours should not exceed the legal limit or a 48-hour workweek plus 12 hours of overtime (unless otherwise legally restricted). Additionally, workers are entitled to at least one rest day every seven days.
### Environmental Protection
Manufacturers are expected to adhere to environmental laws and implement practices that protect the environment.
### Subcontracting and Compliance
Manufacturers may not employ subcontractors for Disney products without Disney’s written approval, and subcontractors must also agree to comply with the Code of Conduct.
### Monitoring and Public Posting
Disney reserves the right to conduct audits, often unannounced, to verify compliance with the code. Manufacturers must keep relevant documentation on-site and post translated copies of the Code of Conduct prominently for employees.
