In 2022, we joined the UN Global Compact, a leading global initiative for corporate sustainability. Our manufacturing partners must adhere to our Supplier Code of Conduct, which is aligned with the Compact's Ten Principles covering human rights, labor, the environment, and anti-corruption. This ensures we foster safe working conditions and ethical business operations.

We’re proud to be part of a global network committed to responsible practices and progress.

Modern slavery is the extreme exploitation of individuals for personal or commercial gain. It is a pervasive issue affecting millions of people worldwide, including in developed nations. We recognise that there is a potential risk of modern slavery within our business
operations and supply chains.

Committed to protecting human rights and addressing these risks in our operations and supply chain, District voluntarily reports under the Modern Slavery Act 2018.

In 2024 we worked with industry expert, Libby Staggs from Sustainable Business Matters to further understand and identify the risks in our supply chain.

In consultation with First Nations consultant Maria Watson Trudgett and Reconciliation Australia, we launched our RAP-Reflect in 2023.

Our vision for reconciliation is to build respectful and reciprocal relationships with First Nations peoples and communities for the benefit of all Australians and acknowledge the vital importance of listening and learning as the imperative first step in that journey. We understand that good things take time and although our RAP is in its infancy, our process is genuine and intensifying.
