What we're all about
At Pacific Brands, we're committed to ethical and responsible conduct across all of our operations, and strive to show respect for the rights of all individuals as well as the environment. We expect these same commitments to be shared by each and every manufacturer/supplier of our products and we enforce this policy through a formal code of conduct which includes:
- Providing employees with a safe and healthy workplace in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations.
- Not using any forced or involuntary labour.
- Not using child labour.
We regularly conduct audits of our suppliers and in the event that a supplier is unable or unwilling to achieve compliance, we reserve the right to terminate or suspend the relevant supply contract.
We are also developing a community investment program that not only enhances our business, but the lives of our employees as well as the wider community. The program includes a number of strategic partnerships through which we share our resources and competencies. These strategic partnerships are with the following organisations:
 Breast Cancer Network of Australia (BCNA)
World Vision Australia (WVA)
Prostate Cancer Foundation (PCFA)
