confirm (pg. 4)

in addition, i also would've selected purchasing/procuring due to the jobs of those highlighted in the MSS

"TJX also conducts regular training sessions for buying agents, vendors, and direct supplier factory management. The trainings cover topics aimed at risk-prevention, including TJX’s policy expressly prohibiting the use of any forced labor, child labor, and prison labor. Among other things, this training provides guidance on recognizing and mitigating the risks of modern slavery. Typically, we hold an average of 8-12 training sessions a year, focusing on various locations around the world that are regionally close to factories included in our factory audit program."

additionally, i also would've selected all employees as "...TJX Associates are regularly trained on policies and TJX expectations. Associates involved in the development and buying of merchandise are expected to undergo formal social compliance training biennially. This training includes TJX’s prohibition on the use of forced labor, child labor, and prison labor."
