Governance and policy:
 

We are committed to acting ethically and with integrity. Our governance framework and related corporate policies like our Code of Conduct and our Speak-up policy reflect this and empower our employees to report and escalate any concerns of unethical conduct, whether relating to concern of modern slavery and human trafficking or other matters.

We developed a Supplier Code of Business Conduct which clearly state our expectations toward our suppliers to act ethically and with integrity in their business dealings and relationships and to implement and enforce effective controls to ensure modern slavery is not taking place in their businesses and supply chains. It also describes Health Matters .Ai commitments regarding health and safety, harassment and discrimination, worker rights, social responsibility and other responsible business practices.
 

Due diligence:
 

As part of our supply chain process, Health Matters .Ai undertakes due diligence on all new suppliers and reviews regularly critical service providers and material outsourcing service providers across a wide range of risks including modern slavery.

As part of our continued drive to improve our oversight of supplier relationships, we have reviewed and reinforced our suppliers due diligence questionnaire to expand, amongst  other, our focus on human rights for suppliers active in risky countries and risky sectors from a modern slavery point of view.

As set out above, we seek to ensure that our suppliers adhere to Health Matters .Ai policies and ethical standards and would not tolerate slavery and human trafficking within our supply chains.
 

Risk and compliance:
 

We have evaluated the nature and extent of our exposure to the risk of modern slavery occurring in our supply chain, to ensure that our standards are respected.

We do not consider that Health Matters .Ai currently operates in high risk sectors for modern slavery; however, our commitment to addressing this potential risk will continue.
 

Training:
 

We acknowledge that educating our staff is fundamental to ensuring potential human rights and modern slavery risks are identified and managed.

Health Matters .Ai’s current onboarding and refresher training for all staff aims at ensuring that they understand all of the provisions of our Code of Conduct in order to contribute to an ethical culture with the highest standards and to conducting business in full compliance with all applicable laws and regulations.

Health Matters .Ai has also developed a specific training on Modern Slavery Act for those staff most in contact with suppliers focusing on the recognition of the signs of modern slavery and the reporting of any concerns.
