Medical Device Components LLC dba Lighteum Medical is committed to maintaining ethics and integrity in our business practices. In compliance with the California Transparency in Supply Chains Act of 2010 (SB 657), we are committed to ensuring that slavery and human trafficking are not taking place in our supply chains or any part of our business. This disclosure outlines the steps we have taken to comply with this act.
We conduct audits of our suppliers to evaluate their compliance with our standards for preventing human trafficking and slavery. These audits are performed by our internal audit team and, in some cases, by independent third-party auditors. Audits are both announced and unannounced to ensure compliance and transparency.
We require direct suppliers to certify that materials incorporated into their products comply with the laws regarding slavery and human trafficking of the country or countries in which they are doing business. This certification is a condition of doing business with us, ensuring that our suppliers uphold the same high standards we set for ourselves.
We maintain internal accountability standards and procedures for employees and contractors who fail to meet our company standards regarding slavery and human trafficking. Any violations of our policies can result in disciplinary action, including termination of employment or business relationships.
We are committed to continuous improvement in our efforts to combat human trafficking and slavery. We regularly review and update our policies and practices to ensure they remain effective and align with best practices and evolving regulations.
At MDC LLC, we believe in conducting our business with integrity and respect for human rights. We are dedicated to taking all necessary steps to ensure our supply chains are free from human trafficking and slavery, and we will continue to work diligently to uphold these values.
