We take compliance seriously, so when a facility falls short of our expectations or local laws, we prioritize active continuous improvement, root cause analysis, and the development of necessary management systems through our Corrective Action Plan Management Process. This means that we figure out how and why the facility fell short, and take action to correct it. This helps facilities better understand what is required, why it is important, and how to implement preventive measures. Facilities with severe or critical concerns are placed under probationary status, which means that they may lose their ability to produce Reformation products. Exiting is always a last resort as we want to ensure we do not have a negative impact on workers, but we expect our partners to be transparent and take immediate action to substantially correct any open violations within a specified time frame.
