GN's internal functions involved in managing impacts include senior management and compliance functions, which oversee the implementation of policies with suppliers. They conduct supplier audits and site visits, particularly with tier 1 and 2 suppliers, to manage risks related to working conditions and equal treatment. GN uses the FRDM platform to monitor suppliers for forced or child labor risks and the EcoVadis platform to gain insights into policy commitments. These resources enable users to understand the management of impacts by providing comprehensive assessments and documentary evidence to substantiate the absence of abuses. Effectiveness is assessed by tracking progress and ensuring compliance with policy objectives.
