“In addition to our own internal monitoring, risk reports come to us from civil society organizations, news outlets, people in the supply chain or their communities, local whistleblower mechanisms, and third-party hotlines as well as through the reporting mechanisms we make available directly to all supplier employees, Apple employees, and the general public. These reports can come to us in any language and can be anonymous.” pg 5

 

“The policy describes the escalation process by which employees and other third parties may report violations related to the policy to Apple’s Business Conduct team or through anonymous reports via a third party hotline” pg. 10

All Apple employees and interns are required to complete mandatory, annual Business Conduct

training that includes education on key points in Apple’s Anti-Human Trafficking Policy. The

policy describes the escalation process by which employees and other third parties may report

violations related to the policy to Apple’s Business Conduct team or through anonymous reports

via a third party hotline.10
