Governance and Risk Oversight

CRU’s Governance, Risk & Compliance Committee oversees our modern slavery efforts. We are developing a comprehensive approach to supplier governance and have started implementing enhanced due diligence for key suppliers, particularly in higher-risk jurisdictions.

Modern Slavery Actions for 2025/2026

In the next year, we are committed to:

  • Awareness: Communicating our zero-tolerance stance across all CRU offices and raising awareness among staff about how to successfully identify and report concerns.
  • Local Oversight: Office managers will regularly review and confirm compliance with our anti-slavery policies.
  • Supplier Due Diligence: Launching a formal process for assessing supplier risk and applying proportionate controls during onboarding, contract negotiation, and renewal stages.
  • Policy Enforcement: Reviewing and updating internal policies to embed modern slavery compliance across procurement and operational activities.

These measures will be reviewed annually to assess their effectiveness.
