"We understand that multiple risk factors potentially influence the nature and extent of modern slavery practices, particularly when these factors intersect. We have used the following risk factors to inform our risk analysis:
• High-risk countries of operation.
• High-risk categories of supplier services.
• Resources used in goods.
• Type of workforce/employment arrangements.
Priority (intersecting) risk has been defined as where combinations of the above factors intersect, we recognise that these suppliers represent even greater risk of modern slavery practices."
