P16 "To protect children in cocoa-growing communities, we scaled up our

Child Labour Monitoring and Remediation System (CLMRS) work and

published two landmark child labour reports that provide industry-leading

transparency and data reporting. We now monitor over 86,000 children,

and, because of our efforts, nearly one-third of all children were no longer

in child labour in 2020. We will now expand the CLMRS to all our West

Africa sourcing. "

 

P19 "We were encouraged when the Fair Labor Association

(FLA) published a report in October 2020 evaluating

our Child Labor Monitoring and Remediation System

(CLMRS) efforts in Côte d’Ivoire. The report, based on

due diligence activity undertaken by the FLA in March

and April 2019, assessed whether cocoa farmers,

workers and their families believe they benefit from

our CLMRS and how it impacts child labour. 19"
