"In 2021, we also published our refreshed Speaking Out (whistleblowing) Policy which aims to ensure that any illegal or improper conduct is dealt with appropriately. Employees can raise concerns with fear of repercussion, and anonymously via our Vault Platform (our new Speaking Out tool) if they choose to."

p. 3 "We also introduced an anonymous supplier whistleblowing mechanism which is detailed in the refreshed Code"

Whistleblower protection may be included in the code for suppliers but is not outlined in the statement.

Although it actually says "raise concerns WITH fear of repercussion" we are assuming here that this is a typo (given the rest of the sentence seems to indicate it should be "without"..)
