Risks and Actions

Our toys are manufactured by third party manufacturers in Asia. This has been identified as a potential modern slavery risk.

Moose is committed to doing business with suppliers who demonstrate high standards of ethical business behavior and conduct business fairly, openly and honestly. We strive to ensure that there is no modern slavery or human trafficking in our supply chain or any part of our operations. We expect all partners in our supply chain to maintain a supply chain that is free from slavery and human trafficking.

The main ways we take to reach these goals include:

1. Supplier Verification Process and Audits

We value the importance of responsible sourcing and select suppliers in our manufacturing and distribution chains that align with our business values through a thorough due diligence process. We visit each factory prior to engagement to ensure compliance with anti-slavery requirements and require each factory to have ethical certifications provided by independent third parties (for example, ICTI and/or BSCI) (please see paragraph 2 below).

We require our suppliers to agree to certain contractual requirements with regards to responsible sourcing and anti-slavery compliance, including for example compliance with anti-slavery legislation, our own Ethical Sourcing and Whistleblowing Policies, the requirement for suppliers to keep certain records and the right for Moose to periodically audit a supplier’s records and premises (including unannounced audits).

As part of our supplier management process, we have a constant physical presence on the ground in the jurisdictions within which our suppliers operate, with offices in Hong Kong, Shenzhen and Vietnam. We make visits (which may be unannounced) to our suppliers’ factories to ensure compliance with anti-slavery legislation and their contractual obligations, including in relation to anti-slavery compliance, and seek to identify and address any potential violations.

2. Supplier Certification

As a condition of doing business with Moose we have certain expectations of our suppliers, including but not limited to:

compliance with all laws and regulations applicable to the country and industry within which they operate;

  • a commitment to comply with our policies, including our Ethical Sourcing Policy;
  • compliance by our manufacturers with the International Counsel of Toy Industries (ICTI) Ethical Toy Program and/or Business Social Compliance Initiative (BSCI) Code of Conduct, which outlines business practices for the lawful, safe and ethical operation of toy factories (https://www.ethicaltoyprogram.org/en/); and
  • all of our manufacturers must be ICTI Ethical Toy Program and/or BSCI certified.

3. Company mandated policies

We have policies in place that each of our suppliers are required to comply with, including our Ethical Sourcing Policy and our Whistleblowing Policy.

Our Ethical Sourcing Policy sets out Moose’s expectation for its suppliers with respect to workplace health and safety, working conditions, entitlements, minimum age of workers and human rights compliance. The terms of our Ethical Sourcing Policy extend not only to our suppliers’ own operations and production facilities, but to their upstream material and component suppliers, their subsidiaries and subcontractors as well. Furthermore, our suppliers are not permitted to subcontract without our prior approval and consent. Our Ethical Sourcing Policy includes specific requirements to address key risks of forced labor and Moose reserves the right to immediately cease doing business with any suppliers that are unwilling to comply with this policy.

Our Whistleblowing Policy provides employees and suppliers with a mechanism to raise any issues or concerns, confidentially or anonymously, that they believe do not align with Moose’s ethical or legal standards. Moose strongly encourages its employees and suppliers to report any improper conduct, whether actual or suspected.

4. Internal Accountability standard and procedures

We expect all Moose employees, suppliers and contractors to comply with our Ethical Sourcing Policy and to act responsibly and ethically throughout their engagement by Moose. We investigate any issues that arise and take the appropriate action to address those issues, including termination of employee, supplier and/or contractor agreements, if necessary.

5. Training

Moose recognises the importance of responsible sourcing and anti-slavery training, particularly for certain stakeholders within its business operations, being those individuals that oversee our factories and those involved in supply chain decision making. The education and enhancement of knowledge of such stakeholders is fundamental to fully integrating labour compliance and social responsibility into all purchasing decisions, and in an effort to build a more responsible supply chain. Moose encourages continuous responsible sourcing training and development. Moose’s Australian head office, including its People and Culture team, overseas all HR and training and development in our Hong Kong, Shenzhen and Vietnam offices.

  • In the last financial year, Moose has assessed the effectiveness of the abovementioned actions that it takes to address modern slavery risks in its operations and supply chain by:
  • Routinely monitoring our third party manufacturers to confirm compliance with anti-slavery requirements, for example, site inspections and reviewing third party audit certifications and reports (e.g. ICTI and BSCI);
  • All our contracts with third parties (including third party manufacturers, suppliers, contractors and service providers) contain contractual requirements expressly requiring that they comply with modern slavery legislation. Failure to do so provides immediate grounds for termination; and
  • Continually reviewing our policies and procedures to identify new modern slavery risks and assess ways to mitigate such risks, and updating internal policies such as the Ethical Sourcing Policy.
