"We recognise that apparel is a high-risk industry and that many workers in our supply chain are vulnerable to forced labour, debt bondage and other forms of modern slavery."

pg. 11

"We recognise that as a company operating within the garment and footwear industry, we are inherently at a higher risk of causing, contributing or being linked to modern slavery, either through our business operations or supplier relationships."

...

"Based on spend and country risk, we identified five higher risk suppliers located in 5 countries, China, India, Madagascar, North Vietnam, and South Vietnam."

pg. 12

"While the garment and footwear industries are typically higher risk for modern slavery, particularly in the manufacturing workforce, our business operations are located in countries with strong regulatory environments and rule of law, such as Australia, the United Kingdom and the United States. In addition to this, our operational policies and processes protect the labour rights of our employees that work for R.M.Williams."

The company "recognises" the broad modern slavery risks in their industry (apparel, garment and footwear). However, it only identifies geographical risk as stated below:

 

Based on spend and country risk, we identified five higher risk suppliers located in 5 countries, China, India, Madagascar, North Vietnam, and South Vietnam (p.11)

 

Therefore, I have unchecked Industry (there is no identification of a particular industry in their supply chain) and workforce (there is no identification of a specific group of workers).
