“We continue to communicate our commitments and policies designed to prevent forced, bonded and trafficked labour through our Responsible Business Principles (the “Principles”) to these suppliers.”
Pg. 8
“To promote human rights across our direct and indirect business operations, we require our network of business associates and extended supply chain to comply with our Responsible Business Principles contained within Burberry’s Code of Conduct.”
“The Principles apply to all our business associates, which include, but are not limited to: finished goods vendors, subcontractors, supporting facilities, raw material suppliers, non-stock suppliers, construction contractors, licensees and franchisees.”
“Since 2016, the Principles have expressly addressed modern slavery risks. Incorporation of the Principles into our contracts with business associates ensures the provisions targeting modern slavery are also included.”
“The Principles include Burberry Code of Ethical Business Principles, Anti-Bribery and Anti-Corruption Policy and Global Environmental Policy, and the following seven policies:”
“ETHICAL TRADING CODE OF CONDUCT: This outlines requirements which all our business associates must uphold in relation to their own employees, contracted labour and throughout their own supply chain. The code includes, amongst other standards, the following requirements: that employment is freely chosen, child labour is not used, freedom of association is respected and no harsh or inhumane treatment occurs.”
“MIGRANT WORKER POLICY: This is specifically intended to protect workers who may be vulnerable to exploitation in the course of international migration. The policy contains requirements including, but not limited to, the prohibition of withholding passports and similar documents and the levying of recruitment fees. During FY 2020/21, we updated this policy based on learnings from partnering with Issara Institute, an NGO specialised on recruitment journeys for migrant workers in supply chains. We then recommunicated this policy to business associates to provide more detailed guidance on implementation of the policy and meeting the standards within it.”
Pg. 9
“CHILD LABOUR AND YOUNG WORKER POLICY: We prohibit all forms of child labour in our own operations and throughout our supply chain. In our Ethical Trading Code of Conduct, we state that we will never use child labour and outline provisions for young workers. Our Child Labour and Young Worker Policy expands on the Ethical Trading Code of Conduct and includes standards relating to implementation, monitoring and remediation procedures which must be followed by all business associates.”
