  • Regular Audits: Periodic audits of our supply chains and business operations to assess compliance with our anti-slavery policies.
  • Reporting Mechanisms: Providing channels for employees, suppliers, and other stakeholders to report any concerns related to modern slavery.

Future Steps

We are committed to continuously improving our efforts to combat modern slavery. In the future, we plan to:
