NIKE, Inc. code of ethics for employees is called Inside the Lines; it defines the standards of conduct we expect of all our employees. Employees are required to annually verify that they have read and understand these standards. We operate a global toll-free Alertline for employees to confidentially report any suspected violations of the law or our code of ethics. Any reported concerns around accounting, auditing or internal controls are communicated to the Audit Committee of the Board. We expect our suppliers to share our standards and to operate in a legal and ethical manner. Our Code of Conduct covers contractors that manufacture products for Nike and our affiliate brands. It requires them to respect the rights of their employees and to provide a safe and healthy work environment.
