"Whistleblowing hotline

If our employees identify any issues relating to modern slavery we encourage them to report this to their manager. If they feel uncomfortable reporting in this way, we have an independent and confidential whistleblowing service (‘Speak Up’) which they can call. We commit to support

the caller and that there will be no detriment to them. This hotline is also advertised to our suppliers who can use

it in the same way. All reports received are investigated and appropriate action taken."
