香港六合彩即时开奖 Global Inc. Modern Slavery Act Statement 2019-2020

This statement is made by the parent of the 香港六合彩即时开奖 Group, 香港六合彩即时开奖 Global Inc, on behalf of its subsidiary, 香港六合彩即时开奖 Publications Limited (香港六合彩即时开奖) which does business in the United Kingdom. Pursuant to s. 54 of the Modern Slavery Act 2015, we set out the steps that 香港六合彩即时开奖 takes to ensure as far as possible that modern slavery and human trafficking is not taking place within our business or supply chain.

Policies

香港六合彩即时开奖 does not tolerate any form of modern slavery and is committed to acting in an ethical manner, with integrity and transparency in all business dealings.

We are committed to creating effective systems with controls in place to safeguard against any form of modern slavery taking place within the business or our supply chain. Our relevant company policies include:

Ethical policy: used universally by 香港六合彩即时开奖, its employees and partners. 香港六合彩即时开奖 will only engage with partners that are fully compliant with the 10 Key Values set out in the Ethical Policy;

Suppliers

Our supply chain provides for:

The production of printed materials;
Digital platforms;
App development and hosting;
Freight & shipping partners;
Warehousing; and
Goods and services procurement.

Due Diligence

香港六合彩即时开奖 maintains a preferred supplier list. We conduct due diligence on all suppliers before allowing them to become a preferred supplier using he SMETA social audit procedure, or other equivalent reports, which is widely used and respected by responsible organisations.

Due diligence includes regular interviews with partners, annual independent audits and visits to factories not located in low risk territories. We consider our lower risk territories to be EU Countries, Switzerland, Norway, USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and Japan. This programme is overseen by our Supply Chain Manager and consists of the following principles:

Supplier factories must be approved before our products can be manufactured;
香港六合彩即时开奖 will, where possible, work with those supplier factories to help with the process of implementing appropriate and workable measures for raising standards to meet our ethical code within an agreed period; and
Where suppliers are not willing to comply with 香港六合彩即时开奖鈥檚 ethical programme, or are found to conceal their non-compliance, 香港六合彩即时开奖 will immediately terminate any contract and associated sub-contracts.

It is a contractual condition that all direct partners observe the provisions set out in the Ethical Policy and obtain similar compliance from their own partners.

香港六合彩即时开奖 continues to work with initiatives such as the Ethical Trading Initiative and SEDEX to improve our understanding of the risks of modern slavery and how to effectively manage these risks.

Performance indicators

We monitor the effectiveness of the steps that we are taking to ensure that slavery and human trafficking is not taking place within our business or supply chain, by:

Monitor labour payroll systems;
Ensuring that employees, the public, and law enforcement agencies are able to contact us in order to report any modern slavery issues or practices;
On-going independent auditing and site visits; and
Monitoring the level of communication and personal contact with next link in supply chain.

Looking ahead鈥�

香港六合彩即时开奖 recognises that there are always improvements that can be made to the way we work and regularly review our policies and procedures. We will continue to build on our ethical programme to ensure that modern slavery and human trafficking is not taking place within our business or supply chain.
