Eliminating Modern Slavery
When people are exploited or forced into labor, they lose their fundamental human rights. Modern slavery includes forced labor, human trafficking, debt bondage, and child labor. Human trafficking involves recruiting, transporting, or harboring people through force, coercion, or deception for exploitation. We work collaboratively with our employees, suppliers, and stakeholders to create a supply chain free from exploitation that upholds the dignity of all individuals involved.
To achieve this, we do the following:
Ethical Business Practices:
We adhere to strict ethical standards that guide our business operations. These standards highlight our dedication to treating all individuals with respect and ensuring their well-being.
Supplier Engagement:
We work closely with our suppliers and business partners to ensure they share our commitment to eradicating modern slavery and human trafficking. Our engagement process includes clear communication about our expectations and ethical principles.
Risk Assessment:
We regularly assess the risks associated with our supply chains. By identifying high-risk regions or industries, we can focus our efforts on mitigating potential risks of modern slavery.
Employee Awareness:
Our employees are essential in identifying and preventing modern slavery. We provide training to raise awareness about the signs of exploitation and human trafficking. We encourage them to report any concerns they may have confidentially.
Reporting Mechanism:
We maintain a secure and confidential reporting mechanism that allows anyone associated with our business to report suspected cases of modern slavery or human trafficking. We take all reports seriously and ensure there is no retaliation against those who come forward.
Continuous Improvement:
Lumikha remains committed to ongoing improvement in our efforts to combat modern slavery and human trafficking. We actively seek feedback from employees, suppliers, and stakeholders to refine our approach.
