Protecting market share through ethical sourcing in a highly regulated industry
Clarios is a leader in the advanced automotive battery solutions space for internal combustion engine (ICE), hybrid, and electric cars and has been recognized for its long-standing commitment to ethical business practices as a three-time honoree of the Ethisphere World’s Most Ethical Companies.
Its batteries are in a third of vehicles worldwide, and the multi-billion dollar company serves more than 1.5 million customers in over 100 countries.
Challenge
The automotive industry remains one of the most heavily scrutinized for its exposure to forced labor and other environmental, social, and governance (ESG) risks. From child labor in mines to forced labor in refineries, the global supply chain for lithium-ion batteries is particularly fraught with known and unknown labor violations. With these batteries among Clarios’ core product offerings, due diligence is paramount to averting the reputational damage so many other brands face as a result of enforcement.
