"Training and capacity building
Each year, the Group invests in human rights training and capacity building, with our teams and suppliers. During the 2022 financial year, more than 9,000 team members and more than 8,000 suppliers received ethical sourcing and modern slavery training, totalling almost 45,000 hours. "
"The Group’s divisional ethical sourcing teams also deliver training to other relevant team members including merchandising and procurement teams, third party auditors and suppliers (including their factory teams), to ensure a shared understanding of Wesfarmers expectations. "
“Team members from Bunnings, Officeworks, Blackwoods, NZ Safety Blackwoods, Bullivants, Workwear Group, Coregas, Greencap, WesCEF and Wesfarmers Corporate Office completed divisional and business specific online modern slavery and human rights training, designed to ensure that team members understand their roles and responsibility to support the ethical procurement of goods and services.”
“Officeworks also created a responsible purchasing practices guidance document and training module for its merchandise team, covering what constitutes a fair price, the production process and how to best place orders (and avoid changes to orders) to reduce modern slavery risk.”
