"Note 8 In the 2021 financial year, Officeworks worked with suppliers to strengthen internal grievance channels. Based on feedback from worker surveys, it was found that Officeworks’ own-brand factory workers preferred to raise grievances through their supervisor rather than an external hotline. E-learning modules have been deployed to supervisors at two Officeworks own-brand factories as a trial, with plans for further roll-out in the 2022 financial year. A confidential hotline provided by a consultancy firm on Officeworks’ behalf enables Officeworks employees to report incidents on an anonymous basis involving misconduct or other inappropriate behaviour or conduct."
