Our Processes for Managing Risk

To assess the risk of modern slavery, we use the following processes with our suppliers:

  • When engaging with suppliers, we ask for evidence of their processes and policies, including commitments around modern slavery, human trafficking, forced labour, human rights, and whistleblowing

  • We conduct audits before entering a commercial relationship with any business where there is the potential for risk. These audited businesses form the basis of our preferred supplier list

  • We review the potential for risk at regular intervals, including the possibility of re-auditing a supplier or conducting spot checks

After due consideration, we have not identified any significant risks of modern slavery, forced labour, or human trafficking in our supply chain. However, we continue to be alert to the potential for problems.

  • Additionally, we have taken the following steps to minimise the possibility of any problems:We reserve the right to conduct spot-checks of the businesses who supply us, in order to investigate any complaints

  • We require the businesses we work with to publish a modern slavery statement, as applicable

  • We collaborate with our suppliers to improve standards and transparency across our supply chain.

  • Only senior members of staff who have undergone appropriate training for assessing modern slavery risks in the supply chain are authorised to sign contracts and establish commercial relationships in any area where we have identified the potential for risk

  • We ensure that all of our suppliers are members of appropriate industry bodies and working groups.

Our staff are encouraged to bring any concerns they have to the attention of management.

Our Performance

As part of monitoring the performance of Globe, we track the following general key performance indicators:

Based on the potential risks we have identified, we have also established the following key performance indicators:

  • the level of modern slavery training and awareness amongst our staff

  • the speed at which we investigate related compliance and the effectiveness of any whistle blowing procedures

  • the level of compliance and transparency in our supply chain

We carefully consider our indicators, in order to ensure that we do not put undue pressure on our suppliers that might increase the potential for risk.

Our Training

All of our staff receive awareness-raising information around issues involving modern slavery and human trafficking, so that they can bring any concerns they have to the attention of management. As part of this, our staff are encouraged to discuss any concerns that they have. Training is refreshed and awareness raised regularly and/or as required.
