We align our policies with relevant internationally recognised guidelines and standards. Our 'Global human rights policy' aligns with the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights (UNGPs), the OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises, the International Bill of Human Rights, and the International Labour Organisation’s (ILO) Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work. Our 'Just transition policy' is aligned with the UN Global Compact (UNGC) and the ILO Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work. Our code of conduct for business partners adheres to several standards and conventions, including the OECD Due Diligence Guidance, the Maritime Labour Convention, IFC Performance Standards and the previously mentioned guidelines. We are currently not able to fully assess our full value chain for instances of non-respect for these principles, besides the indications from our external risk ratings and controversy reports, which have not identified any material incidents.

We work to ensure the health, safety, and well-being of all workers in our supply chains while actively mitigating negative impacts and risks related to working conditions and labour rights. We have identified several key areas of concern, including excessive working hours, injuries, fatalities, debt bondage, withholding of passports, and forced labour. Our actions are focused on both preventing and addressing these negative impacts and risks throughout our value chain. In 2024, we took steps to address work-related rights and improve working conditions within our supply chains to help prevent and mitigate our negative impacts and risks. We have provided human rights training for our Marine Inspection team, emphasising the importance of appropriate working conditions and addressing matters such as bullying, discrimination, harassment, and excessive hours. These efforts aim to guarantee that workers are not subjected to undue stress, and that violations are promptly detected and rectified. We aim to expand this initiative by 2025 to include QHSE site inspections. In cases of actual material impacts, such as workplace injuries, we work closely with the affected individuals to ensure access to medical care, rehabilitation, and financial support. Lessons learnt from these incidents inform ongoing improvements to our safety protocols.
