The company has a publicly available policy statement committing it to respect the right not to be subject to forced labour, child labour, and discrimination. Also, it discloses that it respects the right of its employees to form, join or assist labour organizations and to bargain collectively in accordance with applicable labour laws. However, it is unclear whether the company is committed to respecting freedom of association and collective bargaining, in all contexts and locations, as the company indicates that it respects these rights 'in accordance with applicable labour laws'. Further, it states that its human rights policy is guided by a number of international standards, including the ILO Conventions, however, the use of the word 'guided by' is too weak to be considered a policy commitment as required by the indicator.
