- To seek to raise awareness so that our Employees know what B&W is doing to promote their welfare.
- To inform our Employees on the role they have in the active monitoring of suppliers and in the report to
their management if they suspect a person in the supply chain could be controlled or forced by someone to work or provide services. - To keep eyes and ears open on any situation in the supply chain that could be considered as modern slavery or human trafficking
- This policy is fully supported by the Directors and has been agreed with staff.
The local Directors are specifically responsible for effective implementation of this policy. However, all Employees are required to actively support this policy.
