Our 'Global human rights policy' explicitly highlights our dedication to ensuring freedom of association, the right to collective bargaining, the elimination of forced, trafficked, or compulsory labour, the effective abolition of child labour, and the elimination of discrimination in employment and occupation, among other critical issues. In addition, our 'Code of conduct for business partners' is an integrated part of our agreements with our suppliers and contractors.

Policy monitoring is generally conducted through external risk ratings, controversy reports, and adherence to the minimum safeguards of the EU taxonomy for sustainable activities, which are also subject to limited assurance by our external auditors. 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 aim to maintain transparency by documenting any reported cases that come to our attention related to human rights impacts involving workers in the value chain, whether in our operations or within our upstream and downstream value chain.
