For our supply chain, we are one of the founding steering group members of the UK Stronger Together training programme and offer ongoing financial and in-kind support and advice. This comprehensive one-day training provides detailed, pragmatic guidance and resources to address modern slavery. It also offers a support network where challenges and good practice can be shared among peers and experts. We require all Tesco’s UK suppliers, including service providers such as labour agencies, to attend Stronger Together training. So far more than two thirds of our UK suppliers have attended. Stronger Together have also developed training specific to the construction sector. Colleagues working in construction have recently attended the launch of this new programme and will be attending training as soon as this becomes available. 12
