Human Rights Day marks the anniversary of the day in 1948 when the United Nations General Assembly adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, a milestone document that enshrines the rights of all human beings.

Clorox’s success relies on a broad spectrum of partners, including those that distribute and sell our products, as well as those that supply the ingredients and packaging to produce them. That’s why we have a longstanding history of co-creating, growing and influencing pioneering forums that contribute to elevating human rights and fostering thriving communities through greater transparency and acting beyond our own company to scale our impact.

This year, we embedded more robust environmental and social sustainability criteria into our supplier relationship management practices, scorecards and contracts with priority suppliers to further support adherence to the principles set forth in our Business Partner Code of Conduct.

We also continued our collaboration to advance social and environmental impact in our supply chain with organizations like Action for Sustainable Derivatives, AIM-Progress, Earthworm Foundation, Global Shea Alliance, Responsible Mica Initiative and Sustainable Coconut Partnership, among other nongovernmental organizations and strategic partners.
