Our business has a large impact on the economic well-being of the communities in which we, and our suppliers work, through employment, training, and exposure to international markets and standards. This relationship has to be actively managed to ensure that workers’ and communities’ rights are at the heart of this partnership. To source responsibly and ethically, businesses must have comprehensive ethical trade programmes to protect workers’ rights. Our approach involves a Code of Conduct based on the International Labour Organisations’ (ILO) conventions, a monitoring programme to ensure adherence to the Code and an extensive supplier engagement strategy to drive best practice, and prevent this exploitation.
