Our commitment to responsible procurement
We recognise our impact includes our supply chain, so we work with suppliers who share our values and goals as part of our commitment to responsible procurement.
Our approach is further supported by robust governance, including a comprehensive set of policies, processes, training, and reporting.
As part of our commitment to the UN Global Compact and to report on our progress, we publish our annual Responsible Business Report as a summary of what we do to lead for impact as a law firm.
