Human Rights
ASICS will comply with the laws and regulations applicable in each country or region in which it operates.Where there is a conflict between internationally recognized human rights and the national laws of each country, ASICS will seek ways to maximize respect for international human rights principles.
Managing and monitoring
Through our Supply Chain Management Program, we seek to maintain and improve standards throughout our supply chain, in all areas where our business has both direct and indirect influence.
Our partnership approach
Through our partnership approach, we aim to help improve standards and transparency not just among our direct suppliers, but in all areas where our business has influence.
Due Dilligence
ASICS strongly condemns the use of forced or involuntary labor. Therefore, we deploy a rigorous supply chain management program to ensure compliance throughout our supply chain.
