Conflict Minerals We expect all vendor partners to ensure that merchandise sold to us is free of any confiict minerals and be committed to the elimination of confiict minerals from their products and their supply chain. Social Supply Chain 65 2021 ESG REPORT Conflict minerals are tin, tantalum, tungsten or gold sold to finance conflict in the Democratic Republic of Congo or an adjoining country. We have put in place policies, a due diligence framework and management systems to help ensure our vendor partners’ compliance with this expectation and to enable us to comply with the reporting requirements of the Security and Exchange Commission’s Conflict Minerals Rule. We have engaged an outside firm with specialized expertise in mapping and tracing supply chains to support our conflict minerals compliance program. We expect vendor partners to establish their own due diligence programs to ensure conflict-free supply chains and take any other steps necessary to abide by our policies and their contractual commitments to Kohl’s. View the Kohl’s Policy on Conflict Minerals and Kohl’s Conflict Minerals Report for further details. We are a member of the Responsible Minerals Initiative (RMI), which helps companies make informed choices about conflict minerals in their supply chains. RMI conducts audits over mineral supply chains, and our RMI membership provides access to Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry, country of origin information associated with facilities that are validated through the Responsible Minerals Assurance Program and access to the latest information and insight about developments on regional issues, sourcing initiatives and regulatory schemes in support of responsible sourcing. Kohl’s is part of a multistakeholder RMI committee to address industry-responsible mineral sourcing issues in our supply chains. Clean Diamond Trade Act On July 29, 2003, the Clean Diamond Trade Act was implemented, requiring rough diamonds imported to or exported from the United States to be controlled through the Kimberley Process Certification, an internationally recognized certification system that guarantees diamonds as conflict free. All of our diamond jewelry suppliers must verify that the merchandise they sell to us is legitimately sourced and meets the requirements of the Clean Diamond Trade Act and the Kimberley Process Certification, and ensure that merchandise sold does not contain diamonds involved in funding conflict. Fur-Free Policy Kohl’s prides itself on responsibly and ethically sourcing our merchandise. Kohl’s takes a stance against animal cruelty and does not knowingly carry products that contain real fur. We are aware of our responsibility to global sustainability and our role as it relates to animal welfare and work closely with our suppliers to ensure adherence to our Fur-Free Policy and labeling guidelines. Kohl’s remains committed to advancing ethical practices in our retail business. California Transparency Supply Chain Act Our Terms of Engagement further require compliance with the California Transparency in Supply Chains Act. The Act, implemented in January 2012, requires large retail sellers and manufacturers doing business in California with annual worldwide gross receipts that exceed $100 million to provide disclosures about their “efforts to eradicate slavery and trafficking in their direct supply chains for tangible goods offered for sale.” Our Terms of Engagement strictly prohibit the use of any type of forced, prison, bonded or indentured labor in the purchasing of raw materials, production materials, or the manufacturing or finishing of the products we order, including without limitation, prison and slave labor or human trafficking.
