"Practically, sgfleet and Fleet Hire carry out due diligence on any new supplier and makes enquiries into that supplier's business practices and operations.

Enquiries are made of the supplier to demonstrate that its employees do not have: • excessive working hours;• unsafe work environments;•rates of pay below the minimum wage.Further enquiries are made as how a supplier restricts (or not) a worker's freedom of movements and if there is a practice of confiscating passports."

Despite that the statement indicates sgfleet conducts some sort of audit for new suppliers, there is no indication that this is followed up on after the supplier has pass this first due dilligence inspection.
