Walk Free+MSA incidents identified+methodology
Has the company identified at least one incident of modern slavery?
‘Incident’ is defined as a case study, or description of any case of modern slavery involving an individual or group of individuals. In this respect, synonyms for ‘incidents of modern slavery’ can be references to identified ‘issues’ or ‘problems’ with ‘worker management’, ‘living conditions’, or ‘workplace practices’. Other synonyms can be ‘illegal’ or ‘unethical’ practices.
Please note the incident must refer to a specific example, not a general description of risk, which is covered by the metric 'MSA Identification of risks'.
The statement must refer to cases of modern slavery that the company recognizes as such, not to cases in which the company has identified a risk of modern slavery.
If the company identified at least one incident relevant to the Modern Slavery Act, give them a value of “Yes” and please provide relevant details from the statement as a comment on your value.
If the company did not identify any incidents, or there is no relevant information in the statement, give them a value of “No”. Please include information in the comments section stating whether the company specified there were no incidents OR that there is no relevant information given.
For each value, please include a comment that copies relevant information and page numbers from the statement.
* Note on choosing the Year of your answer
Read the MSA Statement carefully to find out what year it covers.
When a statement is referring to a Financial Year (FY) ending in Q1 or early Q2, it should be labeled with the previous year. Example:
- Statement for FY2018/19 ending in April 2019 = 2018
- Statement for FY2018/19 ending in May 2019 (or later) = 2019
