Prologue
As a company, the adidas Group is committed to fair and sustainable business practices and we
apply these to the selection of our business partners and of the materials used in our products.
1. We expect our business partners to respect and to adhere to the company’s code of conduct,
the “Workplace Standards” (see Information Appendix) that reflect the core values of the
Group. These are general but concrete standards that are based on the International Labour
Organization’s (ILO) conventions and the model code of conduct of the World Federation of
Sporting Goods Industries (WFSGI). The Standards lay out our requirements for labour,
health, safety and environmental issues in our business partners’ factories.
2. We expect our business partners to ensure that materials supplied to the adidas Group are in
full compliance with actual local laws and regulations regarding environmental and product
safety.
3. We require our business partners to avoid the intentional use of those substances which are
listed in the A-01 requirements and to comply with best practice standards. We continuously
monitor and control the compliance with our standards by conducting material tests in
independent laboratories.
4. We actively encourage our business partners to take a proactive stance in improving the
environmental impact of the materials they supply. Improving the environmental impact means
to:
 ensure that materials and components supplied are non-toxic in use and disposal and
using them in manufacturing products does not involve toxic releases or damaging
ecosystems.
 strive to make materials which come from renewable and organic resources that are
recyclable or biodegradable.
 manufacture product components and materials under the best possible environmental
conditions and to use the best available technology.
5. We do not source or process raw materials from any endangered or threatened species, as
defined by the International Union for Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources (IUCN)
in its red list. Our policy also prohibits using leathers, hides or skins from animals that have
been inhumanely treated, whether these animals are wild or farmed.
In particular, we do not use
 Any leathers from animals raised or slaughtered in India or China
 Furs, hides or skins from exotic animals like crocodiles, snakes, sharks or fishes
 Downs and feathers that are plucked from living geese or birds, or those where forced
feeding has been applied
 Merino wool from sources where mulesing practices are still applied, regardless the
country of origin
6. We consult with material suppliers, scientific organisations, governmental authorities and other
stakeholder groups as well as conduct life cycle assessments to determine and evaluate the
environmental impact or risks of new materials, technologies and products before their usage.

Elimination of Chemicals in Cement Systems or Finishes (e.g. Waxes, Polishes or Spot Cleaners) and solvent based
Inks and Dyes
The chemicals listed in the following table are restricted from being used in cement systems or finishes. The supplier has to certify
compliance with these requirements. The requirements apply to each single component used in the process – i.e. for the hardener itself
and not for the mixed cement.
Substances
Tetrachloroethane, Trichloromethane (Chloroform), Dichloromethane, Tetrachloroethylene, Trichloroethylene, Toluene, Xylene,
Methylphenol,  of NP, OP, NPEO, OPEO, Cyclohexane, THF

n.d.
The requirements are based on the EU-Directive EC 1907/2006 REACH and the German law for characterization of chemicals
(GefStoffV).
Dimethylformamide (DMFA; CAS 68-12-2)
DMFA is listed in Annex XV of REACH; all applied Polyurethane-Materials should meet 0,1% (1000ppm; ())
Test Method: Solvent Extraction – GS/MS
In the frame of the VOC reduction program the adidas-Group strives to completely substitute solvent based inks and dyes by e. g. water
based systems. In case, that due to special technical applications and quality requirements a substitution so far is not possible, all solvent
based inks and dyes need to comply with the above defined table. Also adidas Group products may not emit more than 0.5 mg/m3 VOC’s.

* Material group 511 according to the official US-Definition of 16 CFR Part 1303:
“Paint and other similar surface-coating materials means a fluid, semi-fluid, or other material, with or
without a suspension of finely divided coloring matter, which changes to a solid film when a thin layer is
applied to a metal, wood, stone, paper, leather, cloth, plastic, or other surface. This term does not include
printing inks or those materials which actually become a part of the substrate, such as the pigment in a
plastic article, or those materials which are actually bonded to the substrate, such as by electroplating or
ceramic glazing.”
This means e.g. that if a print or graphic can be removed by scraping without lifting up the underlying substrate,
the print or graphic would be considered to be an applied surface coating.

Wherever possible by sample surface condition a quick test with XRF according to IEC 62321 is acceptable, additional testing with ICP is only required
for results defined and listed in the standard itself / if needed CPSC test method applicable
*Acknowledging possible still occurring peak concentrations of lead in metal parts, single findings/concentrations up to 90 ppm may be accepted on
interim base. These acceptances are single case to case decisions, Quality/Technical Service in consultation with the respective Product Safety
management may decide on those. On-going failures may be judged as systematic supplier incompliance, and fall under the “Rejected Materials”
paragraph of the A 01.

The Biocide Dimethylfumarate (DMFu; CAS-Nr. 624-49-7) has been banned for all consumer products, so no
product or any part of it should contain more then 0.1 ppm. In the sporting goods industry DMFu applications
might be found as additional anti-moulding agent in Silica-gel pads and sachets which are added to products
or boxes/packaging to basically absorb humidity. It is therefore strongly recommended to stay away from any
use of such Silica-gel pads and sachets, which then helps to avoid according to best knowledge any risk to
find DMFu within our product lines and shipments. In cases, and only on special consumer request those
sachets are in use, these pads need to be tested according to the above described parameters ()

Information
The adidas Group “WORKPLACE STANDARDS”
PERFORMANCE PASSION INTEGRITY DIVERSITY
These are the core values found in sport. Sport is the soul of the adidas Group. We measure ourselves by these
values, and we measure our business partners in the same way.
Consistent with these values, we expect our partners – contractors, subcontractors, suppliers, and others – to
conduct themselves with the utmost fairness, honesty and responsibility in all aspects of their business.
We use the adidas Group Workplace Standards as a tool to assist us in selecting and retaining business partners
who follow business practices consistent with our policies and values. As a set of guiding principles, the Workplace
Standards also help identify potential problems so that we can work with our business partners to address issues
of concern as they arise. Business partners will develop and implement action plans for continuous improvement in
factory working conditions. Progress against these plans will be monitored by the business partners themselves,
our internal monitoring team and external independent monitors.
Specifically, we expect our business partners to operate work places where the following standards and practices
are implemented:
General Principle
Business partners must comply fully with all legal requirements relevant to the conduct of their businesses.
Employment Standards
Forced Labour
Business partners must not use forced labour, whether in the form of prison labour, indentured labour, bonded
labour or otherwise. No employee may be compelled to work through force or intimidation of any form, or as a
means of political coercion or as punishment for holding or expressing political views.
Child Labour
Business partners must not employ children who are less than 15 years old, or less than the age for completing
compulsory education in the country of manufacture where such age is higher than 15.
Discrimination
Business partners must not discriminate in recruitment and employment practices. Decisions about hiring, salary,
benefits, training opportunities, work assignments, advancement, discipline and termination must be based solely
on ability to perform the job, rather than on the basis of personal characteristics or beliefs, such as race, national
origin, gender, religion, age, disability, marital status, parental status, association membership, sexual orientation
or political opinion. Additionally, business partners must implement effective measures to protect migrant
employees against any form of discrimination and to provide appropriate support services that reflect their special
status.
Wages & Benefits
Wages must equal or exceed the minimum wage required by law or the prevailing industry wage, whichever is
higher, and legally mandated benefits must be provided. In addition to compensation for regular working hours,
employees must be compensated for overtime hours at the rate legally required in the country of manufacture or, in
those countries where such laws do not exist, at a rate exceeding the regular hourly compensation rate.

Wages are essential for meeting the basic needs of employees and reasonable savings and expenditure. We seek
business partners who progressively raise employee living standards through improved wage systems, benefits,
welfare programmes and other services, which enhance quality of life.
Working Hours
Employees must not be required, except in extraordinary circumstances, to work more than 60 hours per week
including overtime or the local legal requirement, whichever is less. Employees must be allowed at least 24
consecutive hours rest within every seven-day period, and must receive paid annual leave.
Freedom of Association & Collective Bargaining
Business partners must recognise and respect the right of employees to join and organise associations of their own
choosing and to bargain collectively. Business partners must develop and fully implement mechanisms for
resolving industrial disputes, including employee grievances, and ensure effective communication with employees
and their representatives.
Disciplinary Practices
Employees must be treated with respect and dignity. No employee may be subjected to any physical, sexual,
psychological or verbal harassment or abuse, or to fines or penalties as a disciplinary measure.
Business partners must publicise and enforce a non-retaliation policy that permits factory employees to express
their concerns about workplace conditions directly to factory management or to us without fear of retribution or
losing their jobs.
Health & Safety
A safe and hygienic working environment must be provided, and occupational health and safety practices which
prevent accidents and injury must be promoted. This includes protection from fire, accidents and toxic substances.
Lighting, heating and ventilation systems must be adequate. Employees must have access at all times to sanitary
facilities which should be adequate and clean. Business partners must have health and safety policies which are
clearly communicated to employees. Where residential facilities are provided to employees, the same standards
apply.
Environmental Requirements
Business partners must make progressive improvement in environmental performance in their own operations and
require the same of their partners, suppliers and subcontractors. This includes: integrating principles of
sustainability into business decisions; responsible use of natural resources; adoption of cleaner production and
pollution prevention measures; and designing and developing products, materials and technologies according to
the principles of sustainability.
