"We expect all our suppliers to do business in a fair and ethical way.We assess whether all potential suppliers comply with all applicable international and local laws when performing their services, including but not limited to all labour laws. This year, we have added a specific question in our supplier selection criteria that assesses compliance with the Modern SlaveryAct. Where the supplier is not directly affected by the Modern Slavery Act, we require a description of the steps taken by the organisation to ensure modern slavery is not taking place across their business or relevant supply chain(s). Once we have selected a supplier, we then require that they are compliant with applicable laws and standards. This year, we defined our minimum contracting terms that suppliers must review and confirm that they meet prior to formal contracting. These terms include compliance with applicable laws and standards (including internationally-recognised human rights and labour standards and anti-slavery laws) and paying a living wage.Where this process identifies suppliers that present a higher level of risk, we engage with them to investigate which may result in an audit. If we ever discover that any of our suppliers' standards fall short of our expectations, we'll end our relationship with them."
