As lululemon athletica grows throughout the globe, we strive to maintain our personal and professional focus on living healthy, balanced lifestyles. Under the leadership of our Compliance and Sourcing team, evaluation and selection criteria has been established to ensure that we are partnering with individuals and other companies who share our core values and take personal responsibility and pride in their work environments.
These standards, based on international industry recognized principles, are outlined in the lululemon athletica workplace code of conduct (PDF - 503KB). We refer to these standards as our "non negotiables":
Each of our manufacturing partners commits in writing to upholding this code of conduct. Our partners also prominently display the code of conduct in their factories as a reminder to everyone of the safe and healthy environment they will provide. If the terms in our code of conduct are not met, actions are immediately taken. You can read more about these steps in our factories.
While the code of conduct speaks to our product factory partners, it is also a tool for the actions of all lululemon educators and support centre employees. The ethical guidelines in the code speak to how we select any other business partner, and also to how we ourselves perform in the global community.
