Demonstrated progress

Because DAI is responsible for complying with requirements from various governments, DAI exercises due diligence on all aspects of its work. DAI considers the nature and the business practices of every party it engages with to ensure that vulnerable workers are not being trafficked or enslaved into filling positions of low or unskilled labour along the supply chain, also including issues of sexual exploitation in exercising due diligence.

Reported risks and mitigations

• Risk: The risk of a project using a downstream partner , particularly tier 3+ which has forms of bonded labour. Due diligence is set to pick up such risks, and so we inspect sites on an ongoing basis.
• Area: Within your supply chains
• Tier: Tier 1 suppliers Tier 2 suppliers Tier 3 suppliers and below
• Group: Women Children
• Location: United Kingdom Nigeria Pakistan Occupied Palestinian Territories
• Mitigation: Constant monitoring and ongoing random surveillance of partners where we anticipate a greater risk, and due diligence processes - including a Management Capacity Assessment Tool that we utilise for all at-risk partners, civil societies and groups.
• Risk: Risk of occasional grant programmes issuing a grant to an organisation which may have forced labour. Due diligence checks where this is a higher risk are consequently stringent.
• Tier: Tier 1 suppliers Tier 2 suppliers
• Group: Refugees
• Location: Ethiopia
• Mitigation: Constant checking of the groups we are working with in areas of high risk such as refugee camps, where although we have no direct control of the inhabitants, we are working in conjunction with them
• Risk: DAI adopts a risk-based approach in assessing its project activities and supply chain to ensure it has means to identify activities and supply tiers that may be at greater risk.
• Group: Women Migrants Children Other vulnerable groups
• Location: Nigeria
• Mitigation: Stringent risk-based due diligence at the point of appointment, and thereafter on engagement with such vulnerable groups.
