"MODERN SLAVERY TRAINING

JD Group continue to partner with Unseen and support the modern slavery helpline.

Audits are undertaken both on the global and UK supply processes. Training and raising awareness is a critical element within any business and extended supply chains. Building on the capability of key employees who have been given the increased responsibility for understanding and mitigating modern slavery risk in our business is important.

This training is now incorporated not only in existing staff training but within the induction of new employees to the business. Modern slavery is now an integral part of the process and will be supported with unseen material in induction packs. This will continue on our E-learning platform and Zoom presentations. The training covers key areas which are deemed to be the most important to our group; preventing exploitation, practical steps for procurement and purchasing practices.

Objectives from the training sessions are:

• To understand modern slavery and forced labour

• Recognise the indicators

• Know how to deal with potential issues and have in-depth

knowledge of the company escalation processes"
