Demonstrated progress

We set KPIs on: 1)Number of collegues trained globally & regular meetings with Welfare sponsors who are 2nd level trained with regular check-ins 2)Transparancy on non-compliances open & closed & the classification of the root causes We do not set KPIs on the number of cases we investigate - our policy is "if we dont find any, we are not looking in the right places" Success comes from reports in direct operations. Our policy is Victim led - we are unable to disclose some statistics.

Reported risks and mitigations

• Risk: Forced labour risks in global manufacturing supply chains, particularly relating to recruitment practices, wage payments, social insurance, overtime & documentation in high-risk sourcing regions.
• Area: Within your supply chains
• Tier: Tier 1 suppliers Tier 2 suppliers Tier 3 suppliers and below
• Group: Women Migrants
• Location: Bangladesh China Egypt India Turkey
• Mitigation: Prior to onboarding any Tier 1 supplier, risk assessments & audits must be in place along with CAP reports. Transparancy of the value chain and supplier engagment beyond common risk is on key areas : Freedom of Association / Living wages/Benefits to ensure a valued workforce. Working in partnership with suppliers and identifying root causes is key to engagment and progress. Suppliers should be long term partners and shared values embedded in the relationship.

• Mitigation: Workers within these sectors may be at increased risk of modern slavery due to factors such as low-paid & temporary employment, the use of labour agencies, migrant labour, subcontracting arrangements and limited visibility beyond first tier of the supply chain. Through the Procurement Team we upload all of the contractors to the UnSeen webstie and collaborate with other businesses on issues which are reported on the platform, operating a combined approach to resolution with the relevent company
