Daimler recognizes the human right of workers
to organize along the lines of national legal
regulations. The right to freedom of association
is assured even in countries where freedom of
association is not protected. This policy is based
on our principles of social responsibility. In the
case of violations of this principle, the business
partner in question is reminded that Daimler
expects it to respect Daimler’s principles of
social responsibility and to put the corresponding
principles in place in its own organization. All
reported cases refer to suppliers. For this reason
we cannot give further information. In addition,
these cases are regularly reported to the World
Employee Committee (WEC) (cf. HR 1) and could
be solved in the sense of the WEC.
As no cases of child labour occured we have no
operations identified.
As no cases of forced compulsory labour
occured we have no operations identified.
No quantifiable data is available, since the
compilation of it would require unjustifiable
expenses.
