Panda is issuing this statement to set out the actions we have taken in recent years - and continue to take - to ensure that our business and supply chains are slavery free. Panda recognises that such an approach is an important part of our corporate responsibility and we will continue to review the steps we take.
The Criminal Law (Human Trafficking) Act 2008, as amended by the Criminal Law (Human Trafficking) (Amendment) Act 2013 commits each business to publish a statement on their website which sets out their policy in this area. Its aim is to increase transparency as well as ensuring it is easily accessible to anyone who wants to see it, the public, consumers, employees and investors.
This statement is made pursuant to Modern Slavery & Human Trafficking (Ireland) legislation (mentioned above) and sets out the steps the Panda has taken to ensure that slavery and human trafficking is not taking place in our supply chains or in any part of our business.
