5. Risk identification (All SORCES)
RDH has a robust process to identify risks in the supply chain. First of all, referring to the risks in the company’s supply chain policy, RDH established a procedure to identify CAHRAs. The procedure includes the resources used, the criteria to define a “conflict-affected and high-risk” area as well as the frequency with which our determination is reviewed. RDH uses the following resources to determine CAHRAs:
☆ The INFORM Index for Risk Management provides country-level risk profiles relating to humanitarian crises.
☆ The Global emergency overview provides sources related with conflicts.
☆ United Nations indicates the sources of human rights.
☆ CAHRAs list represents independent sources.
☆ Dodd-frank Act represents independent sources too.
Referring to its supply chain policy and external resources, RDH has defined criteria and benchmark indicators to determine CAHRAs.
Secondly, RDH has designed a Know your Suppliers(KYS) to include information concerning supplier legal status and identity, supplier mapping and potential risks. The majority of RDH’s suppliers, representing 100% of our annual volume, have completed and returned a KYS form. RDH’s due diligence program manager reviewed the provided information and the UN Sanction list with the Purchasing Team. Whenever inconsistencies, errors or incomplete information were identified in the KYS form, RDH would communicate the improvement areas to suppliers and requested an updated form. If red flags were identified, the company would further engage with its suppliers to clarify and improve the documents as needed. During this reporting period, no red flags were identified related to submitted KYS forms. The collected data shows all suppliers are in low-risk area.
Thirdly, RDH requested origin information for each material transaction and ensured that it was able to understand the transaction origin, transportation route, as well as direct suppliers’ names and locations.
Fourthly, all information collected was reviewed by the company against CAHRAs, sanction lists local laws and internal sourcing requirements.
6. Risk Assessment & Management
Our materials are considered as secondary materials primary, being either waste or processed metals created during product or metal manufacturing. Any pure tin or tin smelter’s byproducts purchases are solely from RMAP conformant sources. We understand as Tin Smelter we should be more responsible in procurement of this minerals. And to eliminate the risk we established a procedure KYC to identify if there is a high or low risk in our supply chain. As indicated before, we use five sources to structure our CAHRAs. These sources assist RDH to recognize whether our suppliers are in low-risk or high-risk areas. In summary, all our suppliers are assessed in low-risk areas. If any supplier has recognized as red-flags in the future, RDH will continue Step 2 due diligence and pursued its supplier to follow RMI policy. If the red-flag supplier did not make improvement, RDH shall suspend the cooperate relationship.
