"All forms of modern slavery – from human trafficking and forced labour, to bonded labour and child slavery – have no place in our society. We are committed to doing all we can to help tackle these issues and are continually looking for opportunities to promote best practice in our operations, supply chain and the companies we invest in. We know we can have a greater impact when we work with others, so we collaborate with peers and through cross-sector initiatives such as the Find It, Fix It, Prevent It collaboration."

pg. 5

"The Global Code of Conduct and Global Third Party Code of Conduct are the two key policies which integrate modern slavery principles into our operations and supply chain, in addition to our Human Rights Statement. We are transparent about our approach and all three documents are publicly available so employees and third party stakeholders – including suppliers and business partners - are clear about what is expected of them. They are also hosted internally on our intranet and disseminated through relevant training modules."

...

"Our Global Third Party Code of Conduct sets out the standards we expect from our third parties. It specifically highlights the UK Modern Slavery Act 2015 as well as our wider interest and focus on ensuring that human rights and labour standards are respected. We ask our third parties to inform us if they have any issues or concerns with the Code"
