The company has a publicly available policy statement rejecting forced labour and child labour, and promoting non-discrimination. Also, it recognises the right to freedom of association and collective bargaining, however the word 'recognises' is not considered as commitment. Also, the company mentions it has committed to ILO Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work in a report which is not considered to be a formal policy commitment.
