page 11 mentions child labor; page 13 mentions suppliers need to follow the statement, page 11 addresses labor rights

I selected two in addition to what was previously selected "Code of Conduct...includes clauses on slavery and human trafficking", and "Contracts include clauses on forced labour".

The first based on the company's statement on pg. 11: “... This includes ensuring workers’ rights to freedom of association and collective bargaining, freedom from slavery, servitude, forced, compulsory and child labour, fair and just working conditions, protections for unemployment, just and favourable remuneration, reasonable limitations to working hours, reasonable rest and leave, and freedom from discrimination in respect of employment and occupation. AGL implements this commitment through its Code of Conduct, Diversity and Inclusion Policy, Health, Safety and Environment Policy, Supplier Code of Conduct and Whistleblower Policy...”

The second based on the following (p. 16) "AGL expects its suppliers to read and understand our Supplier Code of Conduct, and to ensure that their business and supply chain meet the Code’s requirements and comply with all laws applicable to their business. This requirement is included as a standard contractual term in AGL’s procurement contracts"

I also deselected "beyond Tier 1" selections, as the company only mentions suppliers generally
