Certain workers within these categories are especially vulnerable, such as migrant workers, women, young workers, minority ethnic groups, or those in unsafe work conditions. As part of our due diligence process, we conduct detailed assessments, including interviews, to understand how these vulnerable worker groups may face increased harm within our value chain. Based on our double materiality assessment (DMA), we have identified that workers in high-risk sectors like logistics, maritime operations, and mining, and in particular those working under vulnerable conditions, are more likely to experience issues related to unsafe employment practices.
