One World
Our social responsibility doesn't stop at national borders. As one of the leading suppliers of fashion jewelry, we have an opportunity and, in our view, the obligation, to prevent every kind of exploitation.
Since 2001 we have been committed to ensuring that the country-specific labor laws and conditions are adhered to in the countries of production. We sometimes confront a lack of understanding, though - usually due to local traditions and other conditions. We view our suppliers as partners and work together with dedication, empathy and awareness to implement our Code of Conduct.
Auditors employed directly by us in the respective countries assist both us and the suppliers by paying regular visits to production facilities and checking compliance with standards. If standards are not being met, corrective measures are discussed and approved by our auditors.
Our Code of Conduct in this area applies not just to beeline itself but to our entire production chain. Our customers can rest assured that the reasonable prices of our products have not been "paid for" in some other way.
No ifs, ands or buts
Child labor prohibited
beeline does not tolerate child labor.
Forced labor prohibited

We urge our suppliers to set up a management system that enacts, verifies and communicates the rules of the Code of Conduct.
