Modern Slavery Governance at Lion continued
Lion’s Grievance
Mechanism
Lion understands that one of themost effective ways to identify
Modern Slavery both within ourown operations and our supply
base is having an accessible
grievance mechanism where
employees and people who workfor related parties, including
suppliers, can report breachesof human rights. The ability to doso anonymously if desired, withthe protections available and thetransparency of the investigation
process contribute to this beinga trusted channel for disclosures,and we have expanded the service
to better cater to our employees
and stakeholders globally. The
available channels include:• 24/7 phone service withdedicated local numbers for AU,
NZ, US and UK• Web portal• Email• Mail• Whistleblower Committee• Group Leadership Team
members• Audit, Finance and Risk
Committee Chair

The program is communicatedinternally via emails from ourCEO, posters at all sites, desktop
wallpapers and is promoted in
the mandatory Modern Slavery
training module. It is featured
both on the internal intranet
home page and on all pages of ourLion Corporate website.
Access to the Lion Grievance
Mechanism is extended to allcontractors who are inducted
and onboarded to perform work
at Lion sites. This occurs via ouronline induction system whereby
contractors complete a siteinduction module which includes
relevant safety information as well
as details on how to access theWhistleblower process, supportand resources.
In 2021 there were no Modern
Slavery related grievances raised
via our Whistleblower Hotline
across all Lion entities. The
re-launch of the Whistleblower
Policy and hotline createdan increase in the number of
disclosures on other mattersreflecting a successful awarenessand communications campaign.
When a grievance is raised
and substantiated throughthe investigation, we aim toremediate any impacts we may
have caused or contributed to.
We are in the process of reviewing
the opportunity to develop a
remediation framework to provide
transparency over the approachto achieving this.

Training and awarenessLion is committed to increasingawareness and building thecapability of Lion employees
and external parties, including
suppliers, to recognise Modern
Slavery and other breaches ofhuman rights. We understandthat it is through increasingawareness and understandingthat employees will be able toidentify breaches of human rights
and know what to do about it.

The initial roll out of Modern
Slavery training included virtual
sessions with all global leaders(GLT-2) which numbered
250 people in total. This also
included an update to theLion Pty Ltd Board.

It was launched in October 2021
and within three months, at theend of 2021, 33% of employees
had already completed thetraining. The training will beavailable for our US and UK
employees in 2022.

In October we launched ourModern Slavery training module
which is mandatory for all Lion
Australia and New Zealandemployees to complete every
two years. The training module
includes what Modern Slavery is,
how we identify Modern Slavery,
how it is relevant to Lion and what
we are doing about it.

From 2022 onwards, thecompletion of mandatory Modern
Slavery training will be linked toperformance and remuneration
outcomes via a mandatory Forcefor Good achievement goal. By
linking the completion of training
to performance or bonus goals,
Lion is establishing this as a key
priority for the whole business.

Own Operations: minimising the risk of Modern Slavery in Lion operations continued
Employee considerations
Most Lion Group employees
in Australia and New Zealandare employed directly throughindividual employment contracts,
enterprise/collective agreements
or under relevant industry
award-based instruments. These
instruments are underpinned
by Australian and New Zealandemployment laws.
Aligned with the ETI BaseCode, Lion recognises the rightsof employees to negotiatecollectively with or without the
involvement of third parties(including industrial associations/
unions).3 Our Respect andConduct Policy specificallyreferences individual’s freedom
to be a member of a trade union(or other freedom of associationrights) across our worksites.
Lion enjoys a collaborative andpositive relationship with theunion stakeholders represented
across our breweries. Codesof conduct and expectations
regarding respectful treatment of
all participants are established at
the commencement of enterpriseagreement negotiations andagreed to by all parties.
Our New Belgium Brewing
business and UK businesses also
have relevant codes of conduct
establishing expectations
regarding the respectfultreatment of workers.

In our Australia/New Zealandhospitality business, teammembers who are engaged undera casual contract of employment
where the hours are fluctuating
depending upon the seasonality
and needs of the business, areengaged directly by Lion rather
than through a third-party
labour provider. Team members
under these arrangements arepaid in accordance with theindustrial instrument relevant tothat business, for example, theHospitality Award in Australia
and in New Zealand under theminimum wage provisions.
In our UK operations, all workers,
including casual hospitality or
operations team members, receive
the living wage which is over andabove the minimum wage. Across
New Belgium, we pay a living wage
as defined by the MIT Living Wage
Calculator4.

Contractor
considerations
In addition to its own employees,
Lion also uses indirect labour
services including labour hire
and operations services. Lion
engages third party labour at ourbreweries to help manage peakvolume periods and to supplement
labour in times of unplanned
leave or to backfill whenunexpected events necessitatea short-term increase in labour
resources (e.g. floods, coverageduring pandemic).

Across our enterprise agreements,
workers from third party labour
providers who undertake thesame job requirements at Lionsites as Lion employees are paid
the same base rate of pay as
Lion employees with the sameskill level. It is contractually the
responsibility of the labour hireagency to manage all pay andemployment related matters of
their employees engaged at Lionsites and Lion takes the following
steps to ensure that contractual
responsibility is complied with:• Our contractual agreementswith labour hire agencies
and operations services
providers include clauses
related to Modern Slavery andour expectation is that they
will adhere to the minimum
standards established bylegislation and outlined in Lion’s
Responsible Sourcing Code.
• Similarly, in the UK we work
closely with third parties that
support the UK business toensure they meet the standards
we set with candidates they
introduce to us. This includes
ensuring the receive thecorrect pay for the work they
undertake, training and skills tobe successful in their respectiverole and, where applicable,meeting other legislativerequirements (e.g. IR35 checks).

Operations services include theoutsourcing of various operationaltasks performed at the Lion sites
including cleaning and security.
The service provider is responsiblefor delivering the service andpays workers either directly or
through subcontractors. Lionrecognises that operations
services is an area of higher risk
for Modern Slavery since theworkforce is characterized bya higher portion of migrant or
unskilled workers who may beless familiar with their rights andavailable protections. To mitigate
this risk Lion conducts a rigorous
pre-screening, supplier evaluationand onboarding process to ensurethat all relevant policies andprocedures are in place to protect
workers responsible for delivering
the services at our sites. As withtemporary labour, all contractual
agreements include clauses
related to Modern Slavery andour expectation is that they will
adhere to the minimum standards
established by legislation andoutlined in Lion’s Responsible
Sourcing Code.
For all contractors that come onto
Lion sites, their induction includes
information on the availabilityof the Lion Whistleblower
Hotline where they can reportany breaches of labour relations
or human rights, including
underpayment or other formsof mistreatment.

Annual self-assessment
process
To further enhance thetransparency of our own
operations, Lion sites complete
an annual self-assessment
questionnaire (SAQ) in Sedex.
This allows Lion to share with
its customers and supplier’s thepolicies and processes related
to business ethics, health andsafety, human rights and labour
standards and the environment.
By openly sharing thisinformation Lion seeks to increasetransparency in our end-to-end
supply chain.

Additional due diligence
performed during theMergers and Acquisitions
process
Lion’s mergers and acquisition
process was updated in 2021
to respond to Lion’s increased
focused on Modern Slavery.
Specific Modern Slavery questions
have been included in theprecedent due diligence process.
Doing this ensures that all aspectsof Modern Slavery, including
risk, are considered during the
M&A process or where there arechanges in the levels of control.

and processes to reduce the risk ofModern Slavery and human rights
violations. 98% of Australian and
New Zealand spend is with wellestablished suppliers based inAustralia and New Zealand.
Even though the risk of Modern
Slavery is low, we continue toidentify and manage Modern
Slavery risk in our supply chain
through our Responsible Sourcing
program and robust Procurement
processes.

The Logistics category includes all
freight and distribution services
required to get product to theend customer.

Supply Chain: minimising the risk of Modern Slavery in our supply chain continued

The basis for Lion’s Responsible
Sourcing program is our
Procurement Policy and ourSupplier Responsible Sourcing
Code (the Code).
At a minimum, all suppliers to
the Lion Group in Australia& New Zealand must accept
the Lion Responsible Sourcing
Code and will be subject toongoing monitoring (media,
NGO, government scrutiny).
Although globally applicable, we
continue to work with our US and
UK businesses to increase theacceptance of these standards
by our suppliers.
If a supplier is deemed as having
a higher risk for Modern Slavery,
they will be required to be moretransparent through sharing SelfAssessment Questionnaire (SAQ)
data and may need to undergo asocial audit. From 2022 forward,
a key part of our Responsible
Sourcing program will include
social audits on selected suppliers
where a higher risk of Modern
Slavery has been identified. We
have targeted 5-10 suppliers in
our pilot program.

If a supplier fails to comply withany aspect of the Code or has
been found in breach (throughregulator enforcement action or
media reports), Lion will seek tounderstand the cause and actions
taken to remedy the breach. Lion
reserves the right to terminate
a relationship with any supplierthat repeatedly fails to comply
with our Code or does not provide
adequate remedy to any breach.
We have not been required toterminate any relationships
to date.

Supplier risk
segmentation
During 2021 we carried out
an updated supplier risk
segmentation across our tierone supplier base of 3000+
Australian, New Zealand and US
suppliers. Tier one suppliers arethose we have direct contractual
relationships with.
This new segmentation utilized
several external data sources toplot suppliers into the relevantrisk segment. This is a significant
improvement on the previous
segmentation which was largely
based on spend versus actual risk.

The risk assessment consisted of:• Likelihood factors including
category of goods and services
and country of origin

Major• Consequence including spend/
impact, brand exposure andtype of relationshipThe new model utilises externalbenchmarking data to assess
the level of Modern Slavery
risk associated with eachsupplier. Sources of data used insegmentation included:• List of Goods Produced usingChild Labour or Forced Labour5(TVPRA),• Trafficking in Persons Report6(TIPR),• Research in 43 Commodities

Supply Chain: minimising the risk of Modern Slavery in our supply chain continued
From the updated risk segmentation, commodities of high risk identified
for Lion globally include:• Agricultural products, particularly wine growers and fruit juice• Coffee• Labour hire providers, particularly related to operations services forexample cleaners and security• Pallet suppliers• Promotional items, uniforms and PPE suppliers
To operationalise the segmentation, a new supplier management
framework was developed which dictates associated supplier treatments
based on risk to the Lion business. The greater the risk, the moretransparency is required.

Robust Procurement
Processes

Increased global supply
chain transparency

Our Procurement processes,
tools, and templates (sourcing
and contracting) were also
further enhanced to support
the procurement team to
identify Modern Slavery risk. We
strengthened our sourcing andcontracting processes by including
pre-screening questionnaire
included in tender documentation
which will enable category
managers to identify potential risk
prior to contracting a supplier. If
required, subsequent mitigationplans can be built into the contract
to ensure compliance to our
Responsible Sourcing Code.

Over the Reporting Period wehave increased transparency
in our global supply chains,particularly New Belgium andHavana Coffee Works. This
increased transparency wasachieved through an in-depth
risk assessment of tier one
suppliers to identify if and where
Modern Slavery risk exists. The
risk assessment used the same
methodology as that used forAustralia and New Zealand.

Supplier Training
It is important that our suppliers
understand their responsibilities
under the Code. Following
the establishment of our new
Responsible Sourcing framework
in 2022, we intend to roll out
supplier training starting with
20-30 of our highest priority
suppliers. The training will include
an overview of modern slavery
generally and specifically how Lionis tackling the issue of modern
slavery and other human rights
issues in our own operations
and our broader supply chain.
Importantly we will share theminimum expectations of our
suppliers in terms of businessethics, health and safety or
workers, human rights and labour
relations and the environment.

The review of New Belgium’s
supply chain revealed low risk
for Modern Slavery, per the
Global Slavery Index, with >95%
of goods and services sourced
from US based suppliers. New
Belgium is currently in theprocess of rolling out the Supplier
Responsible Sourcing Code totheir supply base.
A review of Havana CoffeeWorks’ supply chain revealed highinherent risk for Modern Slavery.
This is due to coffee being a highrisk commodity, being sourced
from high risk geographies suchas Mexico, Honduras, Columbia
and Guatemala. However, Havana
prides itself on sourcing thehighest quality beautiful coffees
ethically grown and directly
traded from countries of origin.
Havana choose to buy fromproducers who farm sustainably
and in turn contribute to theircommunities through economic
and social return. Havana pays
premium prices in recognitionof the coffee farmers and theimportance of the industry to themany struggling regions where
coffee is grown. They pay over
and above Fairtrade benchmarks.
As part of our REALTRADE
relationships, frequent visits are
typically made to origin where we
see for ourselves how life can befor the farmers and their families,
and how vital it is that they get
remunerated fairly.
Over the past two years COVID
has drastically reduced the abilityof our Havana team to meetwith farmers face to face. Overthe course of the pandemic, wehave maintained all our supplier
relationships and continued to
pay above Fairtrade benchmarks.
As restrictions are lifted, theHavana team will be prioritising
visiting the coffee farms to see
how the farmers and their families
are faring.

Promoting best practiceLion participates in the Sedex
ANZ Advisory Group designed
to share responsible sourcing
best practice, tools and templates
across Sedex users. This groupmeets periodically to consider
and discuss a wide range of
topic, including for example
the challenges for responsible
sourcing, and the application of
successful grievance mechanisms.
Such collaboration and sharing
of information aims to increase
understanding, capability andawareness of Modern Slavery in
our relevant industries.

Lion’s response
to COVID-19
Lion recognises that COVID-19 may haveincreased the vulnerability of some workers toModern Slavery in our operations and supply
chains through factory shutdowns, ordercancellations, workforce reductions and suddenchanges to supply chain structures.

Pub closures affected many aspectsof the Lion business

A key focus for Lion during2020 and 2021 was protecting
the health and safety of ourworkforce, particularly thoseunable to work from home.
Apart from the standard
regulatory requirements, Lion
provided additional support
to all employees including paid
personal (sick) leave for those
who contracted COVID-19,
and paid special leave for those
impacted by COVID-19 as close
contacts, caring for others or tomeet self-isolation requirements.
Lion provided all employees twodays paid vaccination leave tosupport the vaccination process
which ultimately reduced ongoing
disruptions and constrained
working conditions.
Throughout the pandemic,
Lion maintained its supplier
relationships and fostered open
communications to understandkey challenges faced by our
suppliers. We held two webinars
with our key suppliers to share
key learnings from our experience
with relevant health authorities
and best COVID related practices.

We also recognised that
COVID-19 amplified the risk withcertain suppliers such as cleaning
services which have been in highdemand during the pandemic.
We worked very closely with ourcleaning suppliers, communicating
our requirements to enable
them to respond accordingly.
Open, regular communicationand collaboration was key toensuring our cleaning suppliers
could respond in adequate time.

Our cleaning contractor recently
received the Site Services Supplierof the Year Award for theiroutstanding contribution to theLion business during 2021.
Additionally, our Whistleblower
Hotline was available to any
employee or supplier of Lion who
wished to report any human rights
or labour relations violations,but no incidences were reported
during the Reporting Period
through this mechanism.

Keeping up communication
during COVID

Assessing theeffectiveness of ouractions and future plans
Much of the focus during 2021 has been on developing
and embedding the key elements of the Modern Slavery
Management Framework. The emphasis has been on building asustainable foundation for identifying and addressing Modern
Slavery risk so that it becomes part of BAU (business as usual)
versus being a tick box exercise.
Key Performance Indicators
Below are the key performance indicators used to measure how successful our Modern
Slavery approach is in minimising risk to people within our own operations and our broader
supply chain.

Measuring effectivenessTo measure effectiveness, we need to measure change over time, and this is a focus in 2022
and beyond. For example, anecdotally we know that 35% of our people are more aware ofModern Slavery and how it shows up at Lion having completed the training. What we want
to be able to measure is what impact has this knowledge had over time.
One of the key ways we seek to measure the effectiveness of our Modern Slavery approachis through periodic reviews / gap analyses conducted by the Lion Risk Assurance (LRA) team.
These periodic reviews conducted in tandem with expert management consultants willassess the Modern Slavery Management Framework in alignment with the obligations under
the Commonwealth Modern Slavery Act 2018 as well as other best-practice international
standards, and human rights benchmarking exercises.
In March 2021, the Lion Risk Assurance team published the Internal Audit Report on Ethicaland Responsible Sourcing. The objective of the review was to identify recommendations
that could support Lion to uplift the current state of its approach to Modern Slavery andresponsible sourcing practices in line with its strategic priorities.
The review did not identify any clear instances of non-compliance. However, consistent
with a continuous improvement approach, Management Action Plans (MAPs) wereidentified and used to establish a three-year continuous improvement plan on our
Modern Slavery approach.
Accordingly, the table below highlights the continuous improvement focus areas for Lion,
key improvements from 2021 and future plans to enhance the effectiveness of our programin 2022 and beyond.

• Established a process that
requires positive confirmationfrom key suppliers
acknowledging that they haveread and accepted the termsof the Supplier Responsible
Sourcing Code, to ensurethat the code is consistently
communicated across thebusiness• Updated the rules andguidance on sustainableprocurement related
procedures for the contract
management and tendering
processes to ensure that highenvironmental, social andgovernance risks in suppliercategories are consistently
considered• Launch Modern Slavery
training to non-ANZ based
employees

Having a robust process for
identifying and addressing
Modern Slavery risk within
own operations and thebroader supply chain is
key to managing Modern
Slavery risk

• Training for suppliers on the
Lion Responsible Sourcing
Code• Further developmentof external stakeholder
engagement with industry
groups to amplify theeffectiveness of our program• Identify opportunities to workwith external stakeholders(eg. suppliers) on positive
impact projects such as
traceability of products from“grain to glass”• Conducted a gap analysis
on country specific codesof conduct to ensure they
addressed Lion’s Modern
Slavery requirements andsupported our Human Rights
commitments. All were foundto be compliant• Ensure relevant polices arereviewed and updated on aperiodic basis to continue tobe relevant• The approach for identifying
Modern Slavery andresponsible sourcing risks wasenhanced through the newrisk segmentation for tier one
suppliers• The approach for managing
and mitigating identified
Modern Slavery andresponsible sourcing issues
and risks was enhancedby the development of the
new supplier management
framework• Establish training sessions forhigh risk suppliers• Increase transparency beyond
tier one suppliers startingwith high risk suppliers• Explore the use of technology
to monitor the risk of
suppliers• Conducted a risk assessment
to identify higher-risk ownoperated sites globally• Continuous monitoring ofprocurement process toensure correct applicationof Modern Slavery contract
requirements

Global application of policies
Ensure all policies and sitespecific codes of conduct
address Modern Slavery
requirements and humanrights commitments and areapplied globally

Future Plans

Risk Identification and Management

External Stakeholder Engagement
Ensure suppliers are awareof and have accepted
commitments in the Supplier
Responsible Sourcing Codeand that Procurement
related processes (sourcing
and contracting) are robust

Key Improvements in 2021

• Ensuring human rights risks
are identified /consideredas part of the merger andacquisition process
Grievance Mechanism
We have a zero-tolerance
approach to human rights
violations in our own
operations and our supply
chain. It is good to notethat during the Reporting
Period, as per the previous
Reporting Period, we had
zero human rights related
grievances raised. We
believe this is predominately
since Lion operates incountries with substantive
legislative requirements
protecting workers andtheir rights. However,
we do not take this as agiven and will continue toincrease the availability
and trustworthiness of ourWhistleblower Hotline.

• Zero human rights related
issues raised during theReporting Period• Whistleblower Policy
was relaunched globallyin February 2021. The
communication plan was
widespread including an email
from our CEO, posters at allsites, desktop wallpapers,
and the Policy is called out
the internal intranet andpromoted externally on the
Lion Corporate website.

• Continue to promote theWhistleblower Policy acrossLion Group entities andavailability of the associatedgrievance mechanism.

• Communicated grievancemechanisms to suppliers
and workers in the supply
chain through the induction
process.
