"Our audit programme is one mechanism that we use to identify, assess, and address risks throughout our supply chain, including modern slavery risks. We’re mindful of the limitations and subjectivity of audits. Our audit programme is a critical enabler in the discovery and management of modern slavery risks throughout our supply chain, and something we continue to prioritise. We use a combination of our own in-country teams and third-party audit providers to identify risk at factory level against our ethical trade policies and standards. Our key audit providers are The Reassurance Network, ELEVATE, Sustainable Compliance Management, Depth Consultancy and RK Consultancy. Another key partner of ours is ILO Better Work, which runs in-country programmes in Bangladesh, Cambodia, and Vietnam to improve compliance in our factories through assessments. ILO Better Work also runs advisory and training sessions in our factories in Madagascar. "
