"In 2021, we developed a more robust “toolkit” to draw from including audits and assessments of our suppliers. We continued to work with Achilles [for our Real Assets business], which undertakes specialist construction site audits. The resultant findings are consistent with audit findings from the construction sector as a whole. No incidents of modern slavery were noted or reported in 2021."

“Our Supplier Code of Conduct requires our suppliers to provide effective grievance mechanisms for their own workers and to display posters with access to whistleblowing helplines, such as GLAA and Stronger Together posters, to ensure any instances of human rights and modern slavery abuse can be identified and reported. We check for posters and whistleblowing mechanisms during site visits and in audits where they are deployed.”
