This statement (“Statement”) sets out the steps that Terex Corporation (“Terex” or the “Company”), on behalf of itself and its subsidiaries, has taken and is continuing to take to help ensure that modern slavery is not occurring within our business or our supply chains. Modern slavery encompasses slavery, servitude, human trafficking, child labor, and forced labor (collectively “Modern Slavery”).
Terex has zero-tolerance for all forms of Modern Slavery within our business and supply chain. We are committed to acting ethically, with integrity, and transparency in all business dealings and to putting effective systems and controls in place to safeguard against Modern Slavery taking place.
Our Structure, Operations, & Supply Chain
Terex Corporation is a global industrial equipment manufacturer of materials processing machinery, waste and recycling solutions, mobile elevating work platforms (MEWPs), and equipment for the electric utility industry. We design, build, and support products used in maintenance, manufacturing, energy, minerals and materials management, construction, waste and recycling, and the entertainment industry. We provide best- in-class lifecycle support to our customers through our global parts and services organization, and offer complementary digital solutions, designed to help our customers maximize their return on their investment. Certain Terex products and solutions enable customers to reduce their impact on the environment including electric and hybrid offerings that deliver quiet and emission-free performance, products that support renewable energy, and products that aid in the recovery of useful materials from various types of waste. Our products are manufactured in North America, Europe, and Asia Pacific and sold worldwide.
We are aware that the industry we operate in has an inherent risk of Modern Slavery and the inherent risk may be heightened due to the geographical location of supplier operations, such as suppliers operating in China. However, Terex considers the global risk of Modern Slavery existing in our operations and supply chain to be low, based on the strong understanding we have of our Company, business operations, and supply chain.
Our Policies & Practices
We have systems and controls in place to mitigate the risk against any form of Modern Slavery. Our values, policies, procedures, systems, and processes make up our Modern Slavery risk management system, which sets the foundation for ethical and safe working conditions in our business and supply chain.
Terex Corporation Code of Ethics and Conduct (the “Code”) and Associated Training. The Code, which applies to all Terex team members, states the commitment of Terex to comply with all applicable laws, regulations and industry codes in every country where it does business. Our Company strictly prohibits Modern Slavery. All Terex team members receive training on the Code and failure to comply with the Code may result in disciplinary action up to and including termination of employment, in accordance with applicable local laws.
Assessing the Effectiveness of our Actions
Monitoring the effectiveness of our processes and procedures to address actual or potential Modern Slavery risks is important to preventing Modern Slavery in our business and supply chain. To date, Terex is not aware of any reports of Modern Slavery in our operations or supply chain and does not knowingly do business with any supplier who engages in such practice. We regularly look for ways to improve our reporting mechanisms to ensure reporters feel safe to raise any concerns or violations of the law.
As a result of the 2024 Supplier Risk Assessment, we did not identify any actual adverse impacts and significant risks of adverse impacts by our suppliers in relation to Modern Slavery. However, we did identify a small group of suppliers that achieved low scores on the Supplier Risk Assessment. Reasons for low performance include, but are not limited to, not having sufficient policies in place, not having sufficient systems in place to identify and mitigate Modern Slavery risks, among others. We are working with these suppliers on improvement plans and expect their performance will improve for the 2025 Supplier Risk Assessment.
We regularly assess the effectiveness of the Supplier Risk Assessment and look for opportunities to enhance the assessment platform and improve the questions to identify adverse impacts more effectively and be compliant with new and emerging regulatory requirements. We regularly seek feedback from our suppliers, supply chain team, and leaders in our company on ways to improve the supplier risk assessment process.
Consultation Process
We consulted with appropriate Terex Leadership from across the business, including the relevant companies we own or control, for the development of this Statement.
