This metric is asking whether the company has taken steps to figure out where in its operations or supply chain the risk of slavery or forced labour is highest. This can include:

a) questionnaires of new suppliers,

b) a risk management database or tool (collating secondary data relevant to risk), or

c) independent research assessing risk.

For further information on Risk Management please refer to the Home Office Guidance on page 34-35.

Where there are no details of risk management, please give a “No” value. If there is a description, please give the company a “Yes” value and include a comment describing the tools/approach used. If the business indicates it is developing risk management tools specific to modern slavery or planning to implement one in the future, please indicate “In Development” and again include a comment describing the tools being developed.
