Training Vendors in Kohl’s Compliance Our Factory Compliance team works with agents, vendors, facilities, subcontractors and key raw material suppliers to engage both management and workers to review performance and drive improvements. Social Supply Chain 66 2021 ESG REPORT We work closely with supply chain partners to go beyond regulatory compliance to create a positive impact on workers’ lives. We regularly communicate with and provide training to our partners regarding our Terms of Engagement, expectations of compliance, and U.S. Government regulations. Vendor and facility training sessions provide a forum for two-way communication regarding requirements and country-level political, cultural, social and economic issues faced by the facilities. Our vendor and facility partners are invited to additional training based on their identified risk level, newness to our organization or historical audit results. We focus our initiatives on building capacity with proprietary-brand vendors and facilities and will include national brand vendors if circumstances warrant. Training sessions to reinforce our Terms of Engagement and our commitment to human rights are also conducted by our main buying agent, incorporating input from our Factory Compliance team. In 2021, training sessions were limited due to COVID-19 travel restrictions, but virtual training was offered to vendors and facilities over COVID-19 workplace safety, modern slavery, responsible recruitment and Higg FEM and VFEM. We encourage our vendor and facility partners to develop their own internal social, CTPAT and sustainability compliance functions to raise awareness and drive performance improvements. In addition, facilities approved to produce our proprietary goods must have our Terms of Engagement, which includes a grievance channel available for workers to raise complaints or concerns, posted in a readily accessible location at their facility in the language of the workers to ensure awareness of our expectations. It is also key that our associates understand the importance of our Terms of Engagement. Social, CTPAT and sustainability compliance training is made available to all associates via e-learning, newsletters and instructor-led sessions. For relevant associates who have direct responsibility for supply chain management, we provide industry trends training as well as targeted training on human trafficking, slavery, child labor and forced, prison or indentured labor, particularly with respect to identifying and mitigating zero-tolerance risks within our supply chain. Our training sessions cover a number of topics, including: • Expectations for suppliers • Terms of Engagement definitions • Best practices • Site verification methods • Indicators of noncompliance • Facility assessment reporting • Remediation methods • Compliance improvement • Higg Index modules & sustainability • Customs Trade Partnership Against Terrorism (CTPAT) minimum security criteria • U.S. Government regulations
