Overview

Purpose

At Chobani (i), we are committed to Making Better Food for All. We care about the lives we touch, so we respect the human rights of people in our value chain, from workers in our plants and cafés, to smallholder farmers and their communities in our agricultural supply chains, using the United Nations Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights (UNGPs) as a framework for preventing and mitigating human rights risks.

This policy applies to all employees of Chobani, worldwide. We also expect temporary and contract employees, consultants, agents, and any other third party who act on behalf of Chobani to follow the principles of this policy. This policy is aligned with our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, other Chobani policies, and our Supplier Code of Conduct that set out human rights requirements applicable to our suppliers and business partners, regardless of whether they work at Chobani-owned or independent facilities. Failure to adhere to this policy may result in corrective action, up to and including termination of employment.

In addition to abiding by all applicable laws and regulations, Chobani strives to respect all internationally recognized human rights, as relevant to our operations and as set out in the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR). We support the principles concerning fundamental human rights set out in the International Labor Organization Core Conventions and the International Bill of Human Rights.

We undertake efforts on the following human rights areas, among others:

• Child Labor and Forced Labor: We explicitly prohibit child labor and forced labor in our operations, we do not employ anyone who is less than the minimum legal age in their country of employment, and in no case do we employ anyone who is under the age of 18
• Inclusion and Belonging: We value inclusion and prioritize employees’ sense of belonging at work
• Harassment and Discrimination: We do not tolerate any form of discrimination or harassment in employment or employee treatment
• Safety and Health: We are committed to providing a safe and secure workplace for all our employees in line with our Culture of Zero
• Compensation and Development: Our goal is to pay our employees a living wage and provide equal opportunity for all our employees
• Freedom of Association and Collective Bargaining: We believe in a workplace where employees have the right to join (or not join) a union, and we are committed to bargaining with employee representatives in good faith
• Impact, Environment and Sustainability: We respect natural resource ownership, and our goal is to operate responsibly and sustainably

1. Implementation of Our Human Rights Policy

Governance Structure for Human Rights

The Chobani Board of Managers oversees human rights strategy and risk management. Our Chief People Officer oversees the accountability for implementation of this policy, and a Cross Functional Team including Procurement, Legal, People, and Supply Chain collaborate on due diligence activities. We engage with rights-holders, civil society, and industry peers to inform our approach. We encourage our employees, suppliers, and stakeholders to report any human rights concerns or violations, and we are committed to investigating and addressing such reports promptly and effectively.

Human Rights Due Diligence

We undertake practical, proactive, and ongoing human rights due diligence to identify, mitigate and reduce the likelihood of potential and actual human rights impacts within our own operations, and work with our business partners in our supply chain to achieve the same. We strive to embed these due diligence practices at a central level, as well as at a local level in collaboration with our business units. We recognize the importance of engaging with our stakeholders. We are open to dialogue, and where possible, we seek to engage with the communities where we operate to understand and address potential impact of our operations.

Employee Training

Training is an important factor in developing effective human rights practices. As part of our onboarding and ongoing employee training programs, we undertake efforts to build our employees’ awareness of our human rights commitments, and to build our internal capabilities to continuously improve our due diligence practices.

Reporting & Remediation Mechanisms

We use the UNGPs as a framework for preventing and mitigating human rights risks. In line with this framework, we also acknowledge our responsibility to provide access to effective remedy if violations have occurred. We believe it is fundamental to ensure the availability of accessible reporting mechanisms for all employees and people outside Chobani. Our Compliance HelpLine and WebLine are made available to our employees and third parties to raise concerns and to better enable Chobani to appropriately investigate and address potential human rights impacts. We will not interfere with the activities of human rights and environmental defenders, including those who campaign on issues that may be linked to our business operations, nor to tolerate or contribute to retaliation against them.

Monitoring & Reporting

We continually evaluate and review how best to strengthen our approach to addressing human rights. We believe that working through external and industry initiatives, with governments and nongovernment organizations, suppliers, and other businesses, is often the best way to address shared and systemic challenges. We will track and internally report on progress on an annual basis.
