Introduction

Glazenya is committed to ensuring that modern slavery, forced labour and human trafficking have no place in our business or supply chains. We are a handcrafted art-jewelry brand working with small workshops and vetted suppliers. This statement outlines our current actions and our ongoing plan for improvement.

1) Our Business & Supply Chains

  • Products: handcrafted art jewelry (materials may include glass, metal components, shells, gemstones).
  • Markets: US, EU, UK, AU and other regions.
  • Supply chain tiers: design & assembly (in-house/partner workshops), upstream raw materials (beads, findings, packaging).

2) Policies & Supplier Code

  • Zero-tolerance policy on forced labour and child labour.
  • All suppliers must comply with applicable labour laws and international standards (ILO).
  • We require written acknowledgement of our Supplier Code and the right to terminate non-compliant relationships.

3) Risk Assessment & Due Diligence

  • Country and material risk screening before onboarding suppliers.
  • Basic KYC on key suppliers; sample purchase checks and documentation review.
  • Escalation process: investigate, corrective action plan, and if unresolved, disengagement.

4) Supplier Verification, Audits & Certification

(Mirrors the California “five disclosures”: verification, audits, certification, accountability, training.)

  • Verification: new suppliers screened for labour risks.
  • Audits: risk-based desk reviews; on-site checks where feasible.
  • Certification: suppliers confirm no forced/child labour in provided goods.
  • Accountability: breach triggers corrective action or termination.
  • Training: internal buyer team receives annual awareness training.

5) Training & Internal Accountability

  • Annual training for sourcing/QA teams on forced-labour red flags.
  • Management oversight and documented sign-off on key supplier approvals.

6) Effectiveness & KPIs

We measure the effectiveness of our actions against modern slavery and forced labour through the following indicators and 2025 targets:

  • Supplier Code acknowledgement: 100% of active suppliers to sign our Code by 31 Dec 2025.
  • Onboarding screening: 100% of new suppliers screened for modern-slavery risks before onboarding.
  • Risk review coverage: at least 80% of key (tier-1) suppliers reviewed annually.
  • Training: minimum 6 hours per relevant staff per year; 100% attendance tracked.
  • Corrective actions: all identified issues remediated within 90 days or supplier disengaged; progress documented.
  • Incident monitoring: record and report concerns; aim for zero substantiated incidents; responses within 10 business days.
  • Continuous improvement: annual statement update with year-on-year results and next-year targets.

Note: As a growing brand, we will publish results against these KPIs in subsequent annual statements and adjust targets as our supplier base evolves.
