To ensure our decisions and activities are informed by the perspectives of value chain workers, we engage proactively with them and their representatives, including trade unions. The outcome of this engagement directly informs our strategies for identifying, assessing, and addressing actual and potential impacts on workers. Through this collaborative process, we work to uphold fair labour practices and to foster safe, dignified, and inclusive work environments across our operations and partnerships.

During the year, we have also taken steps to address critical work-related rights impacts, including debt bondage and forced labour. For instance, we are working with industry peers through the Worker Welfare Group, a partnership focused on labour rights and worker welfare requirements within the marine construction sector. The Worker Welfare Group has developed a set of principles and guidelines to support, in the first instance, the Singapore marine construction sector, enabling it to meet international standards for worker rights and worker welfare, particularly focusing on responsible recruitment, improved accommodation, better transport, and improved access to grievance mechanisms. We have engaged with key stakeholders to advocate for systemic improvements and are also working with local organisations to facilitate access to remedy for workers. Going forward, we aim to build on our initial learnings from the Worker Welfare Group and implement the principles for fair treatment of migrant workers throughout 2025. This will further strengthen our dedication to labour rights and worker welfare.
