Our commitment to respect human rights, including labour rights, and protect value chain workers is outlined in our 'Global human rights policy', 'Stakeholder engagement policy', 'Just transition policy', and 'Code of conduct for business partners'. 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. It is further integrated in the evaluation process for our joint venture partners and other strategic partners.

We are aware of a material risk related to forced labour allegations of inadequate labour protections and oversight in our supply chain for critical components. These include minerals and metals, such as rare earth elements for wind turbine magnets, copper for export or array cables, lithium for batteries, and silica for solar panels. These materials are often sourced from countries and areas in Africa, Asia, and Latin America, where enforcement of labour protections is weaker, increasing the risk of forced and child labour.
