"Training

We require all employees within our organisation to complete an online training course on modern slavery every year.

Our modern slavery training covers:

- our business’s purchasing practices, which influence supply chain conditions, and which should therefore be designed to prevent purchases at unrealistically low prices, the use of labour engaged on unrealistically low wages or wages below a country’s national minimum wage, or the provision of products by an unrealistic deadline.

- how to assess the risk of slavery and human trafficking in relation to various aspects of the business, including resources and support available.

- how to identify the signs of slavery and human trafficking.

- what initial steps should be taken if slavery or human trafficking is suspected.

- how to escalate potential slavery or human trafficking issues to the relevant parties within our organisation.

- what external help is available, for example through the Modern Slavery Helpline, Gangmasters and Labour Abuse Authority and “Stronger together” initiative.

- what messages, business incentives or guidance can be given to suppliers and other business partners and contractors to implement anti-slavery policies; and

- what steps our organisation should take if suppliers or contractors do not implement anti slavery policies in high-risk scenarios, including their removal from our supply chains."
