'Training and Awareness'

'In 2021 compliance training was completed across the UK region including on ethics, and compliance (including to combat modern slavery in our business and supply chains), by way of LVMH training for managers (stores and head office). Regular reminders of our values and culture were provided at retail sessions run during the year.

The training enabled us to reduce business risk of non-compliance through efficient processes and reliable data and reporting'

'All documentation, policies and updates are provided for easy access via employee portal for all staff.

It remained mandatory for all LVUK staff to familiarize themselves with this statement which forms part of the onboarding of new starters.

Our goal is to reduce the risk of modern slavery taking place in our business or its supply chains to as low a risk as is reasonably practicable'

'Next Year

Training

At LVUK, we do not underestimate the importance of training staff to help combat modern slavery in our business and its supply chains.

Having reviewed our approach, a decision was made to provide more focused training on modern slavery to those of our staff who are involved in recruitment and procurement in the next financial year' (p.4)

'We will start to roll out an updated version of the LV Group Suppliers’ Code of Conduct in the coming financial year. This will help develop and improve our approach towards our suppliers and their supply chains by further requiring them to share our values an culture which includes the eradication of modern slavery in their businesses and supply chains as well as in LVUK' (p.4)
