"Supplier Code of Ethics Places high standards on all Scottish Power group suppliers, requiring them to adhere to the same principles of business ethics and human rights including ethics, labour practices, the protection of human and workers’ rights, and the elimination of forced and child labour."

pg. 11

"Once suppliers have been pre-qualified to proceed to each tender, as a key part of the contracting process they are required to agree to terms requiring them to operate ethically and in compliance with the Supplier Code of Ethics and with relevant legislation, including in respect of Modern Slavery, as well as their ethical obligations in relation to the recruitment, management and compensation of employees. Suppliers are also required to ensure that any sub-contractors are also obliged to meet these obligations. All suppliers are also provided with links to the Supplier Code of Ethics."

pg. 8

"We also have in place a Supplier Code of Ethics, which all suppliers are required to agree to when submitting a tender response to Scottish Power (which would then form part of any new contract). As part of the supplier registration process, suppliers are also asked to provide details of their own code of ethics or conduct."
