Oxford University Press has a business partner questionnaire for its partners engaged in the Press's supply chain; however, it has not yet enhanced the questionnaire with the inclusion of specific questions relevant to the area of slavery or human trafficking. Additionally, "A new edition of the Raising Ethical Concerns policy is currently in preparation, and it is proposed that it will be updated to include specific reference to slavery and human trafficking."

 

"A new edition of the Partner Code of Conduct is planned, and it is proposed that it will be updated to include specific reference to slavery and human trafficking."

 

"During the financial year ended 31 March 2016, the Code of Conduct was updated to include specific reference to the Press taking steps to ensure that there is no slavery or human trafficking in its business or its supply chain." This is one facet that has, indeed, been updated.
