"ASSESSING THE EFFECTIVENESS OF OUR ACTIONS

In order to maintain a strong due diligence system and ensure that modern slavery risks are being identified, managed and remedied, we regularly assess the effectiveness of our systems and processes. The following processes are in place to monitor, review and assess the effectiveness of our actions:

• Regularly reviewing our risk assessment processes, especially when commencing operations in a new country or region or when engaging a new supplier;

• Facilitating regular engagement and feedback between key areas of the business via the Modern Slavery Committee;

• Engaging an independent, International Auditing Company to conduct internal audits on our processes to address modern slavery risks;

• Tracking the actions taken and measuring their impact, for instance the percentage of staff that have received modern slavery training; the percentage of suppliers that have been vetted;

• Reviewing any modern slavery issues that have been reported to either the Sourcing or Compliance Teams and review how those issues were handled."

I have changed the answer from No to Yes because the company mentions assessing the effectiveness of their actions by "Tracking the actions taken and measuring their impact, for instance the percentage of staff that have received modern slavery training; the percentage of suppliers that have been vetted" (p. 17).
