It seems that there is a group to assess the risk but the firm did not state the specific approach, it could be research.

' In the United Kingdom, a cross functional internal team has been formed to review this issue and consider what additional enhancements may be beneficial. Local management has been briefed on the new legal obligations and a supplemental policy to reinforce and reiterate the position with regarding to Slavery and Human Trafficking has been developed. '

They seem to be optimistic about their current level of risk.

'Given the nature of our transportation business model, FedEx does not currently believe that there is a significant risk of Slavery and Human Trafficking within the supply chain.'
