Reported terms and dispute process
- Standard payment terms
RB’s standard payment terms are that payment is made on the first working day after the end of the month in which falls the ninetieth (90) day after the date of the relevant invoice. We do have suppliers on payment terms which are different to the standard.
- Other payment-term information
The company has a policy to ensure that small suppliers are able to opt for a 30-day payment period.
https://www.reckitt.com/sustainability/policies-and-reports/ - Dispute resolution process
RB aims to resolve queries or disputes regarding invoices and payment as quickly as possible. In the first instance, suppliers should speak with their RB contact who can liaise with the Accounts Payable team. Alternatively, suppliers can contact the Accounts Payable team directly. When resolved, the invoice will be available for payment on the next standard payment run.

Reported risks and mitigations
- Risk: Recruitment fees related to contractors working at supplier sites in Türkiye, the UAE, Malaysia, Thailand and Oman
- Area: Within your supply chains
- Tier: Tier 1 suppliers
- Group: Migrants
- Location: United Arab Emirates Malaysia Oman Thailand Turkey
- Mitigation: 14 instances identified where agencies were charging workers recruitment fees. 12 of these instances have been closed and we are working with the final two suppliers to ensure this practice is stopped. The cases identified related to contractors working on our supplier sites. In 2025 we will create and cascade a contractor management checklist to help ensure responsible recruitment is respected by contractors working with our suppliers
- Risk: Supplier terms and conditions of employment and policies
- Tier: Tier 1 suppliers Tier 3 suppliers and below
- Group: Other vulnerable groups
- Location: India Nigeria South Africa
- Mitigation: Whilst terms and conditions of employment not mentioned in the appointment letter is not a direct sign of modern slavery, it could mean employees are not free to leave, overtime is enforced or labour agencies can deduct fees from employees more easily. During our capability-building visits, we also identified instances where suppliers had no policy around freely chosen employment. We are working with suppliers to ensure they have a policy in place which is communicated to employees.
- Risk: Passport retention at suppliers in the UAE, Bahrain and Oman
- Location: United Arab Emirates Bahrain Oman
- Mitigation: Passport retention at suppliers is common practice in these countries. However this is against Reckitt Policy. We continue to actively engage suppliers to return passports to employees and provide accessible secure storage facilities to ensure the safety of personal documents. This means workers do not have to request access to their passports, a practice that can be abused by employers, or leave workers feeling unable to ask which can impact workers' freedom to move as they choose
A registry entry records what the organisation declared in its statement. It is not an independent audit. Group statements can cover several companies; BritDB preserves each exact source-supplied company-number link and excludes approver names and email addresses.

PSC records are company-filed public-register information. When the exact same displayed individual name occurs at multiple companies, BritDB offers a non-indexed cross-reference page. It is a name match only, not proof that the records describe the same person. Service addresses and partial dates of birth are deliberately omitted.
08 Charity register
Charity Commission links
No exact company-number link in this snapshot
The Charity Commission extract did not explicitly associate this Companies House number with a charity. BritDB does not use a name-only match to fill the gap.
This company-level check covers the Charity Commission for England and Wales. Links are accepted only when the official extract supplies this exact company registration number. Scottish charities now have separate OSCR profiles, but OSCR’s bulk fields do not provide a Companies House number, so BritDB does not infer a company link.
09 Northern Ireland charity register
CCNI exact company links
No unambiguous company-number link found
The CCNI source number did not resolve uniquely to this Companies House record. BritDB did not use a name or address match.
CCNI publishes company numbers without a jurisdiction prefix. BritDB links only when the plausible padded UK and NI candidates resolve to exactly one Companies House company.
10 Sanctions screening
UK Sanctions List
No exact business-registration-number link found
The imported UK Sanctions List did not supply this Companies House number as a UK-linked business identifier. BritDB did not attempt a name-only match.
No exact link is not sanctions clearance. UK restrictions can apply through ownership or control even where an entity is not separately named. Always use the current official list and obtain appropriate advice for a legally significant decision.
11 Public procurement
Find a Tender links
No exact GB-COH link in this snapshot
Find a Tender did not explicitly identify this Companies House number in a procurement party. BritDB did not attempt a name-only match.
These links use only the GB-COH identifier supplied in the procurement record. A company may have other public-sector work that is absent, older, below publication thresholds or published without a Companies House identifier.
12 Environmental register
Environment Agency waste registrations
No exact company-number registration linked
The licensed Environment Agency subset did not contain this exact Companies House number. BritDB did not attempt a name-only match.
This is a privacy-reduced, exact-company subset. The full official register also includes sole traders and applicants without a matching Companies House number. Check the current Environment Agency register before relying on registration status.
