We define child labor as services by anyone under the age of 16 and, if local law is more restrictive than our policy, we will comply with the more restrictive local law.
We seek to respect the human rights of local potentially-affected peoples and to develop an understanding of the cultures, customs and values that prevail in the local communities in which we operate, including those of often under-represented groups such as indigenous peoples.
