Responsible Sourcing Clause Samples

The Responsible Sourcing clause requires parties to obtain goods, materials, or services from suppliers who adhere to certain ethical, environmental, or social standards. In practice, this may involve ensuring that suppliers do not use child labor, comply with environmental regulations, or follow fair labor practices. The core function of this clause is to promote ethical supply chains and mitigate reputational or legal risks associated with unethical sourcing.
