Pg 7 details Northern Trusts approach to training their employees on slavery.

"Northern Trust recognizes that educating employees is fundamental to ensuring potential human rights and modern slavery risks are identified and managed. Employees are required to complete training on the Standards of Conduct Policy on an annual basis. Such training emphasizes the importance of complying with applicable laws and maintaining the highest ethical standards. Employees are encouraged to take a stand to correct or prevent any improper activity. The training also includes examples of ‘warning signs’ indicative of modern slavery. During the Reporting Period, Northern Trust expanded the modern slavery-specific content in our mandatory Standards of Conduct Policy training to ensure that our employees are ably equipped to identify and respond to modern slavery risks. This enhanced training was rolled out during 2021."
