"At EDF we have a set of Minimum Standards that suppliers are
required to abide by. These include a requirement for suppliers to
complete a risk-based self-assessment aligned to the 10 Principles
of the UNGC. This provides us with our first opportunity to assess
and mitigate the risks associated with Modern Slavery"(1).
"The known risks around sourcing and installing smart meters
are understood and are addressed throughout the tendering
and contract management processes, including site-visits to
smart meter suppliers"(2).
EDF continuously monitors suppliers to ensure that they comply with the company’s policies and local law through self reporting on-site visits. This can be seen on page 2 in which the statement includes, "The known risks around sourcing and installing smart meters are understood and are addressed throughout the tendering and contract management processes, including site-visits to smart meter suppliers"(2).
