[SID_412] We understand the importance of applying systems and controls to ensure slavery and human trafficking are not part of our supply chains or our own business
[SID_412] Our approach and commitment are communicated across the Group via our Anti-Slavery Policy which was adopted in 2017 and updated in 2021
[SID_412] The Anti-Slavery Policy also forms part of Acteons Compliance Handbook which is accessible to all staff via Acteons Human Resources portal and intranet
[SID_412] Staff are required to confirm annually that they have read and understood the contents of the handbook
[SID_412] Acteon upholds a policy of non-retaliation or victimisation against anyone who reports concerns about slavery and human trafficking
[SID_412] Staff can report these concerns in various ways including to line managers, compliance leads/advocates, Acteons compliance team, or via Acteons third-party operated compliance helpline and confidential web reporting system
[SID_412] Business partners are also made aware of our slavery and human trafficking commitments and are asked to provide contractual assurances that they too will uphold the same standards
[SID_412] DUE DILIGENCE PROCESSES Our updated supplier due diligence process is now well established in the UK and designed to ensure we only work with suppliers who uphold the same standards and conduct similar processes to ensure slavery or human trafficking is not part of their own business or supply chains
[SID_412] We also include robust wording in supplier contracts
[SID_412] We ask
[SID_412] for confirmation the supplier does not use slavery or forced/compulsory labour
[SID_412] what steps the supplier takes to investigate its own supply chain
[SID_412] for confirmation the supplier has a policy or statement on slavery and human trafficking; and
[SID_412] for a copy of their own statement or confirmation they are not required to prepare one
[SID_412] All business partners go through a strict approval process which includes risk-based due diligence such as screening against a range of risks (eg sanctions, adverse media, regulatory action)
[SID_412] Slavery and human trafficking obligations also form part of the contractual arrangements
[SID_412] Auditors of suppliers and business partners are also made aware to look for any signs of slavery or human trafficking and to report any concerns accordingly
[SID_412] RISK ASSESSMENT Risk is assessed by considering several factors but primarily the scope of work and locality
[SID_412] Tools such as the Global Slavery Index are used to assist in assessing risk level (www.globalslaveryindex.org)
[SID_412] Acteon acknowledges that the risk of slavery and human trafficking in our core supply chains is low due to the highly skilled nature of a lot of the work and the localities in which that work is sourced
[SID_412] However certain pockets of risk have been identified, for example, procurement in less familiar geographies or for scopes of work including vessels where low skilled manual labour may be utilised
[SID_412] MEASURING EFFECTIVENESS We undertake audits asking Acteon companies to confirm
[SID_412] Actions taken to minimise the risk of slavery or forced labour
[SID_476] Supplier Code of Conduct Tenon fm is committed to ensuring that its suppliers adhere to the highest standards of ethics

[SID_412] Risk assessments and due diligence processes continued to assess the risk as low in most circumstances
[SID_412] TRAINING FOR STAFF Induction training is given to all staff on all areas covered by the Acteon Compliance Handbook (including slavery and human trafficking)
[SID_412] Within that training, staff are encouraged to report all concerns via one of the reporting routes which includes speaking to a manager, compliance representative or the Acteon Compliance Team, or using one of the third party managed web or phone-based reporting systems
