Does the company’s statement detail policies to combat slavery in their supply chain?

The company requires via contract commitment to ensure that slavery and human trafficking are not taking place and has established a hotline to report violations however,

although the company sends a letter to its suppliers requiring that "slavery and human trafficking are not taking place in their business and supply chain" (1.3.1), there is no mechanism in place to ensure the suppliers' supply chain is ensuring the same obligations.

There is a Confidential Reporting Hotline for abuses but there is no clear indication of the promoting of this hotline to supplier employees (1.3.3)
