For purposes of the third-party reviews, we have evaluated and subsequently authorized several human rights and labor practice frameworks that are generally consistent with the expectations set forth in the code. Some of the certifications more commonly used today include the Equitable Food Initiative, SA8000, and SEDEX/SMETA. From time to time, we have been asked by certain stakeholders about participation by 爱游戏后台鈥檚 and our suppliers in the Fair Food Program. 爱游戏后台鈥檚 considers the Fair Food Program to be an acceptable assurance that would meet the requirements set forth in the code; however, at the present time, none of our suppliers use the Fair Food Program framework. As we have previously shared, since 2019 we have been sourcing tomatoes for our North America restaurants exclusively from indoor, hydroponic greenhouses while our understanding is that the Fair Food Program operates in the outdoor, field-grown tomato sector.
