In general, Apple has a relatively exhaustive policy action target, which can be seen from their general introduction on page 9: "current and former employees, directors and officers, as well as contractors and subcontractors of Apple and its subsidiaries, and sets out Apple’s approach to protecting individuals who report potential misconduct." and "These reports also come through the mechanisms we make available directly to all supplier employees, Apple employees, and the general public, which can be made in any language and can be anonymous." Specific details on each catagory is separately listed in each section, with some absent in the statement.

Does this mean that the provisions go beyond tier 1? --> p. 5: "To be in compliance, suppliers are also required to apply our requirements to their sub-contractors, sub-tier suppliers, and third-party recruitment agencies, through all levels of our supply chain."

I have compared both statements on Page 5 and 9. It is evident that Apple's policy covers beyond the tier-1 supply chain, given the fact that it includes sub-contractors, sub-tier suppliers, and third-party recruitment agencies, through all levels".
Another supplementary statement to show the example: "If a supplier is unwilling or unable to meet our requirements, the supplier risks removal from Apple’s supply chain. Since 2009, we have directed the removal of 25 manufacturing supplier facilities, and 205 smelters and refiners from our supply chain, including those that were unwilling or unable to remedy violations and improve their operations to meet our requirements."
