Majid Al Futtaim response re. migrant worker abuse in Carrefour labour supply chains

…Majid Al Futtaim Group … is an Emirati-owned, diversified lifestyle conglomerate operating in the Middle East, Africa and Asia…

…we continually challenge ourselves to exceed international standards and think holistically about the impact our business has on the environment and the communities in which we operate. As such, we have a company-wide comprehensive sustainability strategy…

One of our strategy’s material focus areas is Human Rights and Employment Conditions, whereby our long term vision is to “Lead by example by requiring all employees and direct (tier 1) contractors to comply with the International Labour Organization’s eight core conventions”, under which we have three sustainable business commitments…

Majid Al Futtaim’s sustainability strategy is enforced by several policies…These policies have cascaded down to the country operational level where our local teams monitor implementation.

Given that our suppliers and service providers are instrumental to our business, it is inherently important to our mutual best interests to bring them with us on the sustainability journey by empowering them and enabling them to uphold the highest standards we strive to apply in our operations…

…the details you list as preliminary findings in your letter in relation to Carrefour’s operations in Saudi Arabia are of concern to use on many levels…
