J & J Snack Foods Corp. Policy on Human Trafficking, Modern Slavery and Human Rights

 

J & J  Snack Foods Corp. is strongly committed to supporting and maintaining the highest standards of ethical conduct and respect for human rights.  All labor must be voluntary. J & J abides by all local and federal laws regarding employment and wages. We do not engage in child labor, forced labor, prison labor  or human trafficking, of any sort.  The Company further abides by the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights. We pay competitive rates and all applicable legal wages in accordance with all local, state and federal laws.

 

Additionally, to the extent we use temporary labor, we regularly audit such companies to ensure their compliance with all laws as well.  We have a dedicated person on staff  who conducts such audits of outside companies to ensure all wages are properly paid and there is no existence of human trafficking or forced labor.

 

The Company expects that all vendors and suppliers maintain the highest degree of ethics and avoid any appearances of impropriety or violations of any such practice which could be considered human trafficking.

 

J & J Snack Foods Corp. values all of its employees and team members. We respect employees’ right of free association.

 

The Company is also steadfast in its commitment to the equal opportunity of all individuals and each person’s right to be free from any sort of discrimination or harassment of any kind. We conduct training, both online and in person regarding our anti- harassment policies. If anyone feels that they have been subject to any type of discrimination, they are free to report the same without fear of reprisal.  Upon an investigation, the Company will take all appropriate prompt and remedial action if there is such a finding.
