Child Labour Policy

Plastic Bank abides by strict standards around child labour.

1. We will never employ children that fall into the definition of child labour as stipulated by the ILO Convention, notwithstanding any national law or local regulation;
2. We will always be against all forms of exploitation of children. We do not provide employment to children before they have reached the legal age to have completed their compulsory education, as defined by the relevant authorities;
3. We will always require business partners and associates to have and uphold the same standards and abide by country-governing laws in countries wherein they operate.
