Description

of child labor
Operations and suppliers at
significant risk for incidents
of forced or compulsory
labor
Reporting criteria and parameters
Boundary: Consolidated (Votorantim + portfolio companies)
Details general:
For the purpose of consolidating this standard, "at significant risk" refers to the real possibility of operations or
suppliers being involved in incidents of child labor, whether due to a history of incidents in a particular sector or link in
the chain, or due to the presence of operations or suppliers in regions with increased social vulnerability, for example.
A "child" is any person under the age of 15 or under the age of completion of compulsory studying (whichever is
higher), except in certain countries where the economy and education system are not sufficiently developed, in which
cases a minimum age of 14 years might apply.
A "young person" is any person under the age of 18 years, the age of majority in Brazil, which is established by
Votorantim's internal policies as the minimum age for hiring.
"Hazardous work" refers to activities and functions that pose a threat to the life or health of the employee, as
determined by Brazilian labor laws.

"Forced or compulsory labor" is defined as all work or service which is exacted from any person under the menace of
any penalty and for which the said person has not offered himself voluntarily (ILO Convention 29 on Forced Labor),
and also debt-induced labor or work in degrading condition (as established by the Brazilian Federal Constitution,
article 5).
