No mention is made of the current or future implementation of whistleblower protections for employees and their families, nor reporting lines or hotlines. However, reviews seem to be from a top-down approach, with the board and directors investigating abuses.
No whistleblower mechanism is mentioned in the statement (as required by the methodology guidelines). While "suspected cases [...] are requested to be reported to the Head of Procurement", such reports are handled "on a case by case basis," i.e. without any established grievance mechanism and/or protection.
All suspected cases of modern slavery and human trafficking are
requested to be reported to the Head of Procurement, and any such report will be investigated on a case by case basis, with
appropriate remedial action taken immediately. 2
