Socially Responsible Procurement Policy
Directly Imported Products

OUR PRINCIPLES

The Respect of Human and Workers’ rights is a key issue in Lyreco’s Values. Lyreco refuses to purchase merchandise that may be manufactured in an inhumane, cruel or degrading environment. We strongly demand our vendors to ensure tha t their factories and their vendors are in compliance with the principles in the SA8000 (Social Accountability) standard.

Lyreco makes on-site visits to all of the factories from which it sources directly to ensure principles in the SA8000 standards are not violated. An audit is carried out EACH year to all vendors. A supplier must pass the audit without any major non conformance in order to continue business with Lyreco.
Before a supplier is eligible for our social audit, it must have signed our Lyreco Business Supplier
Agreement (BSA) and Code of Ethics.
Should Lyreco find an y major violation at the vendors’ factories, Lyreco will immediately terminate any cooperation with such vendors.
