Human Rights in our raw sugar supply chain

ASR Group publishes human rights due diligence report

In line with the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights, we regularly assess the key human rights risks in our raw sugar supply chain to ensure that we are taking steps to identify and address them and support remediation where appropriate.

ASR Group has published a report which describes the salient human rights issues we have identified and how, collaborating with our suppliers and stakeholders, we aim to facilitate improvements in human rights at mills and farms through monitoring, capacity building and knowledge sharing practices. The report is intended to share information on the findings of our work, including our third-party social assessments, and our human rights due diligence approach.

We have made much progress on human rights in ASR Group’s supply chain. While we celebrate these achievements, we also acknowledge the complexity of the issues and the limitations of the tools we have. We are not complacent; addressing human rights issues depends on multiple stakeholders. By engaging with local communities, governments, NGOs, and industry partners, we will help to drive positive change within the sugarcane sector.
