Social Responsibility Conflict Minerals Policy
Itamar Medical Ltd. and its subsidiaries (together, “Itamar Medical”) are committed to the highest ethical standards, whether measured by the quality of their products, their services, or the way in which Itamar Medical conducts its business. Itamar Medical works with suppliers, vendors and contractors to ensure the working conditions in its supply chain are safe, to ensure that affected workers are treated with respect and dignity, and that applicable production processes are environmentally and socially responsible, including responsible sourcing of materials through its supply chain.
Itamar Medical has implemented measures in order to comply with applicable laws and regulation with regards to Conflict Minerals and is committed towards ensuring responsible sourcing and improving the tracability of Conflict Minerals. Itamar Medical is committed to work in accordance with the OECD framework for Risk-Based Due-Diligence in the Mineral Supply Chain, and has incorporated the principles of the Conflict Minerals requirements into its business practices, and its approval process for new items contain conflict minerals requirements.
Itamar Medical expects its suppliers to take similar measures with their suppliers to ensure compliance throughout their supply chain of Conflict Minerals used in their production, and to have in place policies and due diligence measures that will enable Itamar Medical to reasonably assure that products and components supplied to Itamar Medical containing conflict minerals are conflict free. Suppliers that will not adhere to conflict minerals regulations, and will not work towards a conflict free supply chain, will be eliminated from future business opportunities with Itamar Medical.
Cooperation amongst these different tiers in the supply chain, as well as amongst different industries that use these metals is crucial in effectively breaking the link between mining and conflict financing in conflict areas. This is why Itamar Medical actively contributes to the Responsible Minerals Initiative, which brings together the medical device companies, and other industries to improve conditions in the extractives industry.
