There is a large section in the statement about training, but there is no specific reference to slavery or human trafficking. The closest reference is to 'human rights at work'.

"The Company has embarked on a continuous and regular training program of Chanel employees on the content of our policy since 2015. This is also part of any new employee’s onboarding plan. In 2021, 200 training sessions reached approximately 8000 employees worldwide." Page 6.

 

"Ethics@Chanel, the company’s internal code of conduct, provides the global ethical principles to be followed by all Chanel employees, reflecting the company’s core values and expectations. This includes compliance with all applicable labour and employment-related laws, rules and regulations in every location in which it does business and across its supply chain, notably relating to wages and hours worked, equal employment opportunity, non-discrimination, immigration and work authorisation, privacy, collective bargaining, child labour, or forced labour. " Page 5.

 

As the training program of also includes topics of child labour, forced labour, I have changed the answer to all employees instead of no modern slavery training provided.

Since, human rights include forced labour. We have considered training in relation to it as MS training.

“A specific 18-month training course on Chanel’s Responsible Procurement Policy is delivered to Fragrance & Beauty buyers as part of their onboarding journey. The various modules and workshops cover the regulatory and legal environment for sustainability issues, including human rights in the supply chain, and Fragrance & Beauty’s responsible procurement roadmap. In 2020, the training was extended to all the buyers in Watches & Fine Jewellery.

In 2021, all Indirect Procurement buyers, Compliance managers and members of the Finance department of the Asia Pacific Region were trained on the fundamentals of sustainable procurement, based on the standards BS 8903 and ISO 20400 which include criteria related to human rights at work, and on the Sustainable Development Goal 12 related to sustainable production patterns. They were introduced to tools and management systems designed to accelerate the implementation of sustainable procurement practices.”

“ In Australia, the Company is planning to roll out specific training for senior executives covering the Modern Slavery laws in Australia and the steps that the company can take to reduce the risk of modern slavery practices existing in any part of the supply chain. This training is scheduled to take place in the last quarter of 2022.” (In development)
