"Some operations have initiated their own risk assessment and mitigation processes regarding suppliers alongside Group procedures. Responding to identified risks around payment of wages and working conditions on chartered ships, in 2016 Rio Tinto Marine (RTM) implemented initiatives to help ensure all vessels arriving at Rio Tinto ports provided a Maritime Labour Certificate and/or associated declaration of maritime labour compliance. We are aware of one incident in 2016 of failure to pay wages on a ship chartered by a subsidiary. When concerns were raised RTM immediately asked the ship owner and manager to resolve any wages and working conditions matters. RTM will continue to review its chartering and due diligence processes to further respond to third-party risks, including non-payment of wages. Rio Tinto Procurement Emerging Markets, largely focused on suppliers from India, China and South East Asia, has instituted self-assessment on a range of issues including forced labour. This helps to better understand suppliers and introduce mitigation measures where needed. Following a human rights risk analysis whichidentified labour rights amongst other risks, a project in Africa incorporated a standalone human rightsannex into a major construction tender, including requirements around forced labour. This helped mapthe expertise required for a contractor to be selected in a high-risk jurisdiction."
