Ethical Trading Initiative (ETI) Base Code ETI-BC-9: No harsh or inhumane treatment is allowed

Physical abuse and physical discipline, threats of physical abuse, sexual and other harassment, verbal abuse and every other form of intimidation shall be prohibited. Gender-based violence falls within the harassment and abuse the clause bans; ETI treats it in separate guidance rather than in the clause text.
