We conduct a risk re-assessment through Supplier Self-Assessment Questionnaires (SAQs) for suppliers that have been assessed as high risk in the country risk assessment. The aim is to evaluate how proactively and systematically the supplier works regarding sustainability both in their own operations and in the supply chain. It also gives important input for prioritising further due diligence actions, such as supplier audits.

After the risk re-assessment we follow-up on supplier performance by conducting different levels of on-site audits. Suppliers with non-compliances are requested to provide a plan for corrective action. The suppliers’ progress in implementing the plan is monitored by the auditors.
