ENSURING HEALTH AND SAFETY

                        Because Kontoor Brands values our work and our well-being, our Company goes to great lengths to
                        foster a safe and healthy work environment.

                        Associates may not sell, possess, distribute, use or purchase illegal drugs—or sell, transfer or distribute
                        prescription drugs—on Company premises or during working hours. Associates must never work
                        while impaired by alcohol or drugs.

                        If you are concerned about a substance-abuse problem, please seek confidential assistance through
                        your benefits provider.
                        In addition, Kontoor Brands does not tolerate any action that threatens people, property or our Company,
                        including verbal threats, harassment, physical attacks, damage to Company property, possession
                        of any weapon on Company property or any other behavior that would make others feel unsafe.
                        If you become aware of any health or safety concern, report it to a manager immediately. For additional
                        guidance, see our Substance Abuse and Violence-Free Workplace Policies.



                        PROTECTING EMPLOYEE PRIVACY

                        We respect the privacy of our fellow associates and will safeguard the confidentiality of sensitive
                        personal information that we receive in the course of our work. This includes personal health
                        information, contact information, government-issued identification numbers and confidential
                        employment information, including salary and evaluation details. If your job involves having access
                        to such information, you must take care to safeguard it. Only use other associates’ private information
                        for valid business purposes, and never access it or share it with others—even colleagues—unless
                        necessary to fulfill your job responsibilities.



                        PROTECTING CONSUMER AND THIRD-PARTY DATA

                        We also strive to protect the confidential information of our consumers and third parties and safeguard
                        their confidential personal information against unauthorized access, use or disclosure. Consult the
                        Law Department with any questions about the use and handling requirements of consumer and
                        third-party data.
