“In April 2021, we launched a single global internal and external reporting channel for non-compliance concerns and questions – Speak Up.”
“Speak Up, which replaces two previous systems, is independently operated by a third party to ensure anonymity. It provides a dedicated communication channel for reporting non-compliance concerns, with improved transparency and data. Every allegation is handled professionally and confidentially.”

“The third-party worker helpline we developed with ELEVATE and the Responsible Business Alliance has been extended to reach all Sime Darby Plantations operations, or around 35,000 workers. This support line enables workers to report safely on working conditions, recruitment, safety and other rights abuses. More than 4,500 workers have now participated in in-person training, with many more receiving information via other means.”

“The portal is a secure online platform which draws on situational information reported directly to the Unseen UK Modern Slavery & Exploitation Helpline. Once reviewed and de-identified by Unseen, the portal provides details such as the type of exploitation, location, police force region and some demographic data. Once a case is seen by Nestlé, we collaborate on next steps with Unseen, who coordinate with police, service providers and other businesses who may be involved.”
