pg. 13: "We’ve based our supplier risk assessment process on guidance, resources and supplier audit reports from the Responsible Business Alliance (RBA), EcoVadis and our own checks."

 

"We use an ethical standards questionnaire, which determines the risk level based on where we’re buying the product or service from, what it is that we’re buying, and the skill levels of the workers involved in its production or supply"

 

"We also expect our suppliers to promote our Speak Up hotline or equivalent local grievance mechanism to their workers so they can raise complaints and concerns in confidence. "

 

"We check this is happening by talking one-to-one with a handful of workers during on-site assessments."
