It seems the company normally conducts on-site assessments, but due to covid has not this year. In discussion of elements of supplier due diligence they say they "Conduct ongoing due diligence – including labour rights and modern slavery on-site assessments" (p.6)

Also on p. 6 they state: "COVID-19 restrictions have continued to limit our ability to carry out on-site assessments. As a result, we have trialled a remote methodology for on-site assessment in Azerbaijan. This involved an experienced assessor remotely supporting an in-field team to help it engage with local management, review documents and carry out telephone interviews with workers. The trial identified and addressed a number of issues faced by workers that would have been difficult to identify through desktop review alone"
