Protecting Human Rights
Respect for human rights is a core principle of Bolton's approach to responsible business conduct. Our Code of Conduct sets out specific commitments and expected behaviours regarding the protection and promotion of human rights across our operations — covering our employees, customers, and suppliers, as well as the communities in which we operate.
Through our sustainability strategy, we direct a share of the value generated by our brands towards initiatives aimed at reducing environmental impact and supporting social well-being in the communities where we operate.
