管理方法:供应商协作

Avient 的价值不仅通过专业产品惠及消费者,而且超越了我们自身的流程和运营的界限。与供应商建立和保持稳固透明的关系是我们成功的关键。

Our Supplier Code of Conduct drives interactions with our suppliers and expectations for doing business, and is aligned closely with International Labor Organization (ILO) standards. 它包括对童工和强迫劳动、集体谈判权、非歧视、员工健康和安全、冲突矿产经合组织 (OECD) 尽职调查和环境伦理处理的要求。

Avient 的行为准则供应商行为准则包含与奴役和人口贩运相关的内部问责标准。所有员工、代理人和顾问都必须遵守这些标准。Where required by law, we also have specific disclosures and processes in place, including a supplier audit program that focuses on human trafficking. To our knowledge no suppliers have been found to engage in such activity.

供应商评估

In 2022, Avient accelerated its Sustainable Sourcing Program to further evaluate our prioritized partners. In addition to aligning our suppliers with the Supplier Code of Conduct, the program is designed to address quality, cost and reliability requirements, and a range of sustainability, social responsibility and environmental considerations. The intent is for Avient to increase supply chain compliance, and to make business allocation and sourcing decisions on who we partner with based on sustainability and quality related risk.

In the initial phase of our Sustainable Sourcing Program, our suppliers conducted a best-in-class self-assessment utilizing EcoVadis on environmental, social and governance requirements aligned with the UN Global Compact principles. Based on these self-assessments, we evaluated our top tier suppliers which represents 60% of our total direct spend for sourcing in 2022. 83% of these suppliers reported an EcoVadis rating of Silver or above in their overall scorecard evaluation.

此外,供应商自我评估是通过我们的质量管理体系 (QMS) 流程完成的。该流程纳入了我们最敏感应用的审批标准。

Conflict Minerals Process

Avient acknowledges some raw materials are obtained from conflict areas. Avient has elected to utilize the reporting template provided by the Responsible Minerals Initiative (RMI—formerly Conflict-Free Sourcing Initiative), which facilitates the transfer of information through the supply chain regarding mineral country of origin and smelters and refiners being utilized. The template also facilitates the identification of new smelters and refiners to potentially undergo an audit via the Responsible Minerals Initiative Conflict–Free Smelter program. Avient holds this process as a standard with all suppliers, thus reducing third party supply chain risk. It is part of our policy and partnership with our suppliers that they follow the responsibilities and procedure of RMI and are obliged to our Conflict Mineral Policy.

Through the Sustainable Sourcing Program, we expect our suppliers to continuously assess and evaluate their sustainability efforts, improving their performance over time. Avient is committed to continue partnerships with suppliers who align with the following policies:

The initial phase of the Sustainable Sourcing Program is focused on training of our suppliers and evaluation through third party self assessments, including EcoVadis and IntegrityNext. Currently our supplier audit program is focused on quality, with plans to extend across all aspects of our Sustainable Sourcing Program.
