Entry Overview
Mars partnered with a key supplier and independent organisations to tackle complex human rights challenges in the sugarcane supply chain. From training field staff on how to identify problems, to engaging with local growers’ associations to help change attitudes and practices and efforts to deter minors from working in the industry, Mars has implemented a state-of-the-art labour risk monitoring system that is now protecting more than 3,500 sugarcane cutters from exploitation and industrial incidents.
