"We actively police compliance with our code and ESP by a four step process in our raw cane sugar supply chain."

"Step 1 requires our suppliers to adhere to our Ethical Sourcing Policy." The prohibition of forced labor ("not use any form of forced, bonded or involuntary labour") and guarantee of labor rights ("...employee rights to freedom of association, wages, benefits and work hours") are detailed in the ESP (document cited).

"Step 2 asks every raw sugar supplier to complete an annual self-assessment of their social and ethical practices using the Sedex Supplier Engagement platform."
