Rice Lake Weighing Systems is dedicated to protecting human rights. We are a committed equal opportunity employer and will abide by all fair labor practices. Rice Lake strives to ensures that our activities do not directly or indirectly violate human rights in any country.

Rice Lake Weighing Systems considers mining activities that fuel conflict as unacceptable. As a privately held corporation, we are not subject to the Dodd-Frank rules; however, as a supplier to many publicly traded companies, Rice Lake has developed trade compliance standards requiring our vendors to verify the inclusion of any concerned minerals in products supplied to Rice Lake Weighing Systems.

• Audits are performed to evaluate supplier compliance with company standards, and verification is periodically completed through an annual self-assessment.
• Any discrepancies are immediately reported to our publicly traded business partners as part of their ongoing efforts for compliance.
• Rice Lake Weighing Systems rejects the use of child and slave labor, and all forms of human trafficking. This position is communicated to our suppliers. Audits are performed to evaluate supplier compliance with company standards for trafficking and slavery in supply chains, and verification is periodically completed through independent audits and/or self- and/or Rice Lake Weighing Systems’ assessments.
• Our suppliers are expected to certify that they use only materials in their products that comply with the laws regarding slavery and human trafficking of the country in which they are doing business.
