“Our approach to addressing modern slavery sits within this wider human rights agenda and is supported by our Code of Business Conduct and human rights policy which set out our obligations to customers, colleagues and communities in our own operations and supply chain.”

“As members of the Institute of Human Rights and Business Responsible Recruitment Leadership Group, we also actively support the Employer Pays Principle that ‘No worker should pay for a job – the costs of recruitment should be borne not by the worker but by the employer.’”

“As part of our membership of the Consumer Goods Forum (CGF), we helped to develop and strongly support the CGF’s Priority Industry Principles. These principles have underpinned the development of our modern slavery strategy, and we are one of the leading companies supporting collaborative efforts to combat forced labour in the consumer goods sector.”
