On January 1, 2012, the California Transparency in Supply Chains Act of 2010 (SB 657) went into effect, requiring retailers and manufacturers above a certain size doing business in California to disclose measures used to track possible slavery and human trafficking in their supply chains. The disclosure is aimed at providing information to consumers, allowing them to make better, more informed choices about products they buy and the companies they support.

DRÄGER is committed to conducting its business with honesty and integrity and complying with all applicable laws and to operate its business in an ethical, sustainable and safe manner.

Through the DRÄGER Code of Conduct, DRÄGER requires its employees, contractors, business partners and suppliers to share these same high standards.

DRÄGER’s efforts to support the dignity of all workers include:

•  A commitment by our business partners affirmatively abide by the Code of Conduct, including the principle of freely chosen employment.
•  A business partner pre-qualification process that requires suppliers to certify that the materials incorporated into the product comply with the laws regarding slavery and human trafficking of the country or countries where they are doing business.
•  Training of personnel on the Code of Conduct
•  Employee training on protecting human rights in the supply chain.

DRÄGER reserves the right to assess and monitor suppliers’ compliance with these requirements as needed.

DRÄGER oversees the supplier qualification process and regularly evaluates and updates its procedures and processes in order to maintain these high standards in an ever changing and evolving world.
