As a certified B Corp, we’re in business to make a positive impact. We are proud to be part of a global movement toward a more inclusive and equitable economy.

We’re committed to fair labor practices, and we proudly back this up with an accreditation from the Fair Labor Association. To ensure we’re sourcing responsibly, we build long-term partnerships with our suppliers and work with them to improve social and environmental performance. We’re continually enhancing our standards to increase transparency and traceability throughout our supply chain. Check out our 2025 Goals to learn more.

In 2020, Burton became an accredited member of the Fair Labor Association (FLA), a nonprofit that promotes human rights at work. FLA is an international network of companies, universities, and civil society organizations collaborating to ensure that millions of people working at the world’s factories and farms are paid fairly and protected from risks to their health, safety, and well-being. Earning Fair Labor Accreditation is a rigorous, multi-year process. It includes evaluation in areas ranging from the commitment of our company’s leadership to fair labor standards, to our implementation of systems designed to ensure that our factories provide decent and humane working conditions. Burton’s Code of Conduct and Supply Chain Sustainability Standards follow the FLA Benchmarks and align with the International Labor Organization, UN Guiding Principles, and the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development. These policies outline specific expectations around labor practices and ensure that we do business with suppliers who align with our values and share our commitment to respecting workers’ rights.
