OUR MODERN SLAVERY STATEMENT 2024
One target of the UN Sustainable Development Goals is for the international community to end modern slavery by 2030. The global adoption of these goals has increased the focus on ending modern slavery and specific regulation has been introduced in many countries, including Australia.
Mercury is dual listed on the NZX and ASX and complies with the requirements of the Australian Modern Slavery Act 2018. An equivalent obligation does not yet exist in New Zealand, however draft legislation on modern slavery and worker exploitation has been proposed which Mercury supports.
