HUMAN RIGHTS

Our approach to human rights is aligned with the United Nation’s Guiding Principles on Human Rights, Business enterprises should respect human rights. This means that they should avoid infringing on the human rights of others and should address adverse human rights impacts with which they are involved. The responsibility of business enterprises to respect human rights refers to internationally recognized human rights – understood, at a minimum, as those expressed in the International Bill of Human Rights and the principles concerning fundamental rights set out in the International Labour Organization’s Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work.

To this end, our Human Rights Statement of Commitment5, as approved by the Board, includes our practices with regards to:

  • Employee rights and fair labour practices
  • Freedom of association and collective bargaining
  • Harassment free workplace
  • Safe and healthy workplace
  • Modern slavery and child labour
  • Diversity and inclusion
  • Community and stakeholder engagement
  • Remedy

In 2024, employees were provided an online course covering Human Rights including a deeper dive training on modern slavery and child labour. We confirm that we have not received any complaints related to human rights contraventions, both internally or externally.
