The Dixie Group, Inc. is committed to conducting business lawfully and with integrity. Dixie’s commitment to integrity includes, among other things, an expectation that its suppliers will adhere to similarly high expectations for integrity and compliance.

Dixie’s compliance and ethics expectations are set forth in our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, training materials and other communications that we provide to some of our suppliers and other third parties, as well as our employees with direct responsibility for supply chain management. Failure by an employee to meet our conduct and ethics standards may subject an employee to disciplinary action, including up to termination.

The Dixie Group, Inc. assesses and selects its suppliers with care and seeks to perform appropriate diligence and on-going oversight of our supply chain. We will act to discontinue relationships with those suppliers and other third parties who fail to meet our high standards for lawful and ethical conduct, including prohibitions on the use of forced labor in any of its forms, such as human trafficking and slavery.
