" Factories may also utilize the amfori BSCI External Grievance Mechanism, which provides a platform for individuals or organizations to submit grievances about perceived or real instances of wrong or unfair treatment. All grievances under this system are reviewed by the amfori BSCI secretariat."

This answer is correct. On page three of the company's Canadian Modern Slavery Act, the company describes having in place a confidential and anonymous channel for factory workers to express any grievances they may have, serving as a way for workers to report suspected incidents of slavery or trafficking without fear of retaliation. The company explains how this grievance system works, writing, "The grievance process must provide a timely response to the complaint and include a plan to address the issue. Factories may also utilize the amfori BSCI External Grievance Mechanism, which provides a platform for individuals or organizations to submit grievances about perceived or real instances of wrong or unfair treatment. All grievances under this system are reviewed by the amfori BSCI secretariat." (Hudson's Bay Company Modern Slavery Statement 2023, 3)
