“Annual due diligence is also undertaken on Capgemini UK’s annual spend to determine how any change in our spend profile affects the risk of modern slavery within our supply chain. Following the review on the 2021 spend this identified that we have had 5 suppliers in 3 high risk countries (China, India, and Brazil). All have been thoroughly assessed and all were found to be acceptable. 97% of the suppliers registered in the assessment system are from the countries whose governments were judged to be responding most to modern slavery, 2% are from countries not particularly known for slavery, 1.5% are from countries that we know there is slavery. We have no suppliers that are from countries in the top 10 who have the highest prevalence of slavery (source: Global Slavery Index 2018).”

“Since 2010 all active suppliers to our UK business have a contractual obligation to complete our on-line assessment. From 2016 the bespoke tool assesses the full breadth of Corporate Responsibility & Sustainability (CR&S) activities as well as the corporate compliance of our suppliers. It includes questions, requiring evidence, about their modern slavery policies, actions and intended future activity.”
