Guidance for companies on disability in global supply chains. This guidance relates to ETI’s Base code clause 7, which stipulates:

No discrimination is practiced - there is no discrimination in hiring, compensation, access to training, promotion, termination or retirement based on race, caste, national origin, religion, age, disability, gender, marital status, sexual orientation, union membership or political affiliation.
