"Continuing to sponsor modern slavery helpline (08000 121 700): Through sponsoring the hotline we gain insight of the potential risks of modern slavery and how forced labour situations are manifesting and being reported into the Helpline." (Page 4)

 

"This includes our Human Rights policy, our Code of Ethics & Behaviours, and our Whistleblowing Policy (aimed principally at our employees but also available to others working in our supply chain.)" (Page 4)

 

In the 2016 MSA, it was stated that, "We also operate a Whistleblowing Policy, aimed principally at our employees but also available to others working in our supply chains which encourages staff to report any wrongdoing which extends to human rights violations like Modern Slavery. all reports will be fully investigated and appropriate remedial actions taken." on page 1.
