- Does the undertaking disclose the process for setting targets related to managing material negative impacts, advancing positive impacts, and managing material risks and opportunities, specifically detailing whether and how direct engagement with workers in the value chain, their legitimate representatives, or credible proxies with insight into their situation, was conducted? Additionally, when disclosing the embedding of external-facing policies related to value chain workers, does the undertaking consider internal policies of responsible sourcing and alignment with other relevant policies, such as those addressing forced labour? Furthermore, does the summary of supplier codes of conduct indicate whether they include provisions addressing worker safety, precarious work, human trafficking, forced labour, or child labour, and confirm that these provisions are fully in line with applicable ILO standards?

Question Id: S2-1_07
The targets have been set directly relating to value chain workers, such as aiming to reduce negative or advancing positive impacts, or to manage our material risks and opportunities. We have defined a process for setting targets relating to human rights due diligence, but we have not engaged directly with value chain workers, their legitimate representatives, or credible proxies, in setting them, nor in tracking the performance, or in identifying lessons or improvement as a result of our performance. Moving into 2025, we also plan to undertake a comprehensive review of these policy areas to understand any applicable targets that can be set in relation to workers in the value chain. GN’s overall ambition in this sphere reflects our drive to strengthen our due diligence processes and efforts in tracking effectiveness to monitor our progress connected to impacts on value chain workers.

GN's approach to identifying necessary and appropriate actions in response to material negative impacts involves engagement initiatives with suppliers based on material negative impacts relating to working conditions and equal treatment of value chain workers. They conduct audits and site visits with tier 1 and 2 suppliers, focusing on child labor and forced labor. GN believes their processes enable them to identify related negative impacts and have dedicated resources to understand which actions are needed. Effectiveness is tracked by reviewing material findings from due diligence processes and engaging with stakeholders and suppliers to mitigate impacts.
