Policies

We operate several internal policies to ensure that we are conducting business in an ethical and transparent manner.

These include the following:

• Recruitment and selection policy - We conduct checks on all prospective employees to verify that they are eligible to work in the countries we operate in
• Whistleblowing policy - We operate this policy so that employees are able to raise concerns about how staff are being treated or practices within our business or our supply chains without fear of reprisal
• Staff code of conduct - We are committed to the fair treatment of all staff. Our staff code of conduct reflects our core values and expected behaviours. The code of conduct makes it clear that we have a zero-tolerance approach to modern slavery.
• Safeguarding policy - This policy highlights the potential risks of modern slavery and human trafficking, including how to identify signs of exploitation and how to report concerns

We make all reasonable efforts to ensure our suppliers are aware of our policies and adhere to the same standards.

Due Diligence

As part of our efforts to monitor and reduce the risk of slavery and human trafficking occurring in our supply chains, we have adopted the following due diligence procedures:

Our due diligence procedures aim to:

• Identify and action potential risks in our business and supply chains.
• Monitor potential risks in our business and supply chains
• Reduce the risk of slavery and human trafficking occurring in our business and supply chains.
• Provide protection for whistleblowers.

Risk and compliance

We do not consider that we operate in a high-risk environment because the majority of our supply chain operate within Scandinavia and the United Kingdom. We review on a regular basis all aspects of the supply chain based on supply chain mapping.

We do not tolerate slavery and human trafficking in our supply chains. Where there is evidence of failure to comply with our policies and procedures by any of our suppliers, we will require that supplier to remedy the non-compliance.

We provide training for our staff about modern slavery issues and increase awareness.

Training covers:

• How to identify the signs of slavery and human trafficking.
• What initial steps should be taken if slavery or human trafficking is suspected.
