"In these 26 nonconformant findings there were no instances of workers subjected to the worst forms of modern slavery (i.e., human trafficking, wage-less bonded labor, or surrender of personal documentation). In 2022, we enhanced our supplier communications and education materials by emphasising the proactive measures suppliers need to take to address all aspects of conformance to this provision of the RBA Code. We feel this was a positive factor in the near 40% reduction of nonconformant findings in this Code provision compared to 2021 audits."
pg. 6

Also Page 6 (para 1): "Analysis of the 60 full audits indicated that 18 suppliers located in Brazil, Chile, China, India, Japan, Mexico, Philippines, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, and United Arab Emirates incurred a total of 26 priority, major, or minor non-conformance to the Freely Chosen Employment provision of the RBA Code."
Because the company states that ""In these 26 non-conformant findings there were no instances of workers subjected to the worst forms of modern slavery (i.e., human trafficking, wage-less bonded labor, or surrender of personal documentation)" - I have changed the answer to 'no'
