A recognition that responsible recruitment risks are higher in South and East Asia, but we should be monitoring risks globally for all vulnerable groups such as migrant workers and women. As a result, we developed our new Responsible Recruitment Policy and Program and the goal is to expand the program to 100% of in-scope labor service providers (~75 suppliers). We also began tracking the number and geographic location of migrant workers in our broader supply chain both through our Responsible Sourcing and Recruitment programs.
The statement focuses on risks to the workers already in its supply chain (as Jada called out above), but does not mention examining its existing business KPIs and goals that might be increasing risks to forced labor.
