The company states that it engages in risk assessments and utilises external audits to identify and assess actual and potential adverse impacts on fundamental human rights in its business. Further, the company states that it conducts social compliance audits through the SMETA protocol at its manufacturing facilities operating in countries identified as high-risk according to Verisk-Maplecroft global risk indices on human rights, among other indices. However, the social compliance audit conducted by SMETA and Verisk Maplecroft alone is not sufficient for human rights risk identification process. Also, no evidence found that the company describes the process(es) to identify its human rights risks and impacts in specific locations or activities covering its own operations.
