Beyond providing avenues for raising grievances, for example through a whistleblowing mechanism, companies should be providing avenues for worker voice and worker representation throughout its supply chain.
To meet this metric, the company must disclose that it has engaged in dialogue with supply chain workers or with groups representing supply chain workers.
The engagement can be part of the risk assessment, management or remediation process. Engaging in dialogue can mean one or more of the following:
- through worker interviews, mobile surveys, or workshops with workers
- engaging with labour unions or workers representaives
If the company discloses that it has engaged in dialogue with supply chain workers, please indicate “Yes, with supply chain workers”, and provide details.
If the company discloses that it has engaged in dialogue with supply chain workers representatives or labour unions, please indicate “Yes, with labour unions”, and provide details.
If no action exists or is described in the statement, please select "No". If yes, in your comment please add the relevant section of the statement, including what form of engagement the company discloses.
