Global Manufacturing Principles
Mattel's Global Manufacturing Principles (GMP) apply to all parties that manufacture,assemble, license or distribute any product or package bearing any of the Mattel logos.
GMP provides guidance and minimum standards for all manufacturing plants, assembly operations and distribution centers that manufacture or distribute Mattel products. GMP requires safe and fair treatment of employees and that facilities protect the environment while respecting the cultural, ethnic and philosophical differences of the countries where Mattel operates. GMP also requires internal and periodic independent monitoring of our performance and our partners performance to the standards.
Mattel is committed to executing GMP in all areas of its business and will only engage business partners who share our commitment to GMP. Mattel expects all its business partners to adhere to GMP, and will assist them in meeting GMP requirements.However,Mattel is prepared to end partnerships with those who do not comply.
Mattel and its partners will operate their facilities in compliance with applicable laws and regulations. Mattel has defined the following overarching principles to which all facilities and partners are required to comply. These principles are dynamic and evolving to continually improve our efforts to ensure on-going protection of employees and the
environment. In addition, Mattel has developed a comprehensive and detailed set of underlying procedures and standards that enable us to apply and administer our GMP in the countries where we operate. The procedures and standards are updated and refined on an ongoing basis.
