Florida State University’s Supplier Code of Conduct states that FSU is “committed to conducting its business affairs in a legal, socially responsible, sustainable and ethical manner consistent with its dedication to excellence in teaching, research, creative endeavors, and service.”
This Supplier Code of Conduct is a statement of the University’s expectations and requirements with respect to Suppliers with whom the University does business. The Code is guidance for socially responsible business practices and describes the University’s expectations for Supplier policies and actions regarding respect, inclusion and non-discrimination, labor standards, human rights, sustainability, ethics and health and safety. The Code includes the following requirements:
- All Supplier employees should be treated with respect and dignity at all times.
- The Supplier shall not discriminate unjustly in its employment practices in accordance with federal and state law and the principles expressed in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, Article 1.
- Because FSU is an equal opportunity employer and federal contractor or subcontractor, all suppliers must agree that, as applicable, they will abide by the requirements of 41 CFR 60-1.4(a), 41 CFR 60300.5(a) and 41 CFR 60-741.5(a).
- The Supplier shall take and document all reasonable steps to provide a healthy, safe working environment and prevent injuries, accidents or illnesses, in accordance with OSHA standards and ILO Convention C155, Article 16.
- The Supplier shall have a Code of Ethics, or other mechanism, that addresses issues regarding ethical conduct of employees relevant to the market.
- Suppliers must abide by applicable laws regarding the environment wherever they operate. In addition, Suppliers should commit to operating in an environmentally responsible manner, including reducing, measuring and reporting on their environmental impact.
This Code applies with equal force to the Supplier’s subcontractors. The Supplier shall be responsible for ensuring that any subcontractors with whom the Supplier does business on a University project adhere to the Code. Upon request, each Supplier shall disclose to FSU or its designee the location (including facility name, contact name, address, phone number, e-mail address, products produced, and nature of business association) of each facility used in the production of all goods and services provided to fulfill contracts with the University.
