Hobbs’ sustainability content focuses on ethical trade, human rights, due diligence in supply chains, and equity, diversity and inclusion. The company says its business strategy is centred around internationally recognised human rights and labour standards frameworks, including the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights. It also references collaboration with supply chain partners, worker representatives, trade unions, trade associations, governments and other stakeholders to address human rights issues. In addition, Hobbs’ related print business describes a net-zero journey, EcoVadis recognition, FSC-certified paper and cardboard cartons, and carbon-balanced printing through the World Land Trust.

Human rights policy

TFG Brands London is committed to respecting, protecting, and advocating for the human rights of all who are involved in our own business operations and supply chains. We accept our responsibility to act with transparency and integrity, to be proactive in resolving problems and to collaborate with others to ensure that international human rights are respected, and that wherever we operate, people are treated with dignity and respect.

Due diligence on risks

Underpinned by the UN Guiding Principles for Business and Human Rights and aided by the ETI Human Rights Due Diligence (HRDD) framework, we assess, identify, monitor, and mitigate all direct and indirect human rights risks, which helps us to better understand, manage and respond to the risks in our business operations and supply chains.

Grievance mechanisms

We recognise the importance of access to effective grievance mechanisms and are committed to increasing our capability to effectively identify and respond to concerns. We require the provision of transparent, fair and confidential grievance mechanisms by our suppliers for workers, and where necessary we will support them to establish these, and we commit to providing remedy where we have directly caused or contributed to an impact.

Equity, diversity and inclusion

We continue to work with our entire business towards the transformations in society that will tackle social inequality and unfairness and end the marginalisation of individuals and groups who are under-represented. We have identified four focus areas for our Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion strategy: gender, race and ethnicity, neurodiversity, and people with disabilities, and LGBTQI+ communities.
