Sustainable Supply Chain

Getac Holdings believes that a strong foundation for supply chain management comes from close cooperation and mutually beneficial relationships with suppliers, where risks and benefits are shared. Getac follows the Responsible Business Alliance (RBA) Code of Conduct and has established the company's corporate social responsibility policy and supplier code of conduct. The relevant sustainability requirements have been incorporated into the Long-Term Procurement Master Agreement.
All raw material suppliers are required to sign the Long-Term Procurement Master Agreement and comply with its provisions, which include commitments from the supplier and its upstream suppliers to adhere to integrity clauses, fulfill environmental protection responsibilities, respect labor rights, prohibit the use of conflict minerals, and agree to provide notification and evidence to assist in the investigation of mineral sources and regulatory processes.

Prohibiting Procurement Of Conflict Minerals

As a corporate citizen of the world, Getac supports and complies with the Responsible Mineral Initiative (RMI). We do not use conflict minerals that are mined in areas experiencing armed conflict or under conditions that violate human rights, specifically the 3TGs (tin, gold, tantalum and tungsten) extracted from the Democratic Republic of the Congo and neighboring countries. Getac also adheres to the RBA Code of Conduct and adopts the RMI conflicting minerals report template (CMRT) in 3TG reporting.
