We require suppliers to act swiftly to address non-conformances and to ensure the welfare of workers. We monitor the effectiveness of our audit programme by grading suppliers and tracking the number and type of non-conformances that are found and remedied.10
We follow up with suppliers to ensure the most serious issues are remediated. As a last resort, we cease to trade with factories if they don’t work with us to address business critical issues.13
We work with sites graded as business critical to resolve the issues.13
