Supply chain standards
We expect our suppliers and their supply chain to comply fully with all applicable laws and regulations in
the conduct of their business; therefore although respecting human rights and environmental issues inthe supply chain is ultimately our suppliers’ responsibility, we have taken the following steps tocommunicate clearly our expectations to our suppliers.
As part of the supplier due diligence process managed by our global procurement services team,
potential suppliers are asked to confirm whether they have a policy in place prohibiting child and/orforced labor, whether the policy extends to their own suppliers and subcontractors, and to provide a
copy of the policy. Those potential suppliers are also asked for information about social compliance
audits of their own suppliers and subcontractors, with particular reference to significant risks forincidents of child labor. That due diligence process also seeks information about a potential supplier’s
equal opportunity, human rights, anti-corruption, and health and safety policies.
Since 21 June 2016, our global procurement services team is specifically asking potential suppliers toconfirm their compliance with human rights laws, rules and regulations including the Modern Slavery
Act 2015. Those potential suppliers are also being asked to provide information about how they monitor
and comply with those legal standards.
