SUMMARY
Tyson Foods Inc. (Tyson Foods), the largest meat company in the US, ranks 37th out of 43 companies and discloses significantly less information on its forced labor policies and practices than its peers. Since 2018, the company does not seem to have taken additional steps to strengthen its performance and disclosure. As the benchmark methodology requires companies to keep up with evolving stakeholder expectations and emerging good practices, the company’s score has decreased by three points. Tyson Foods’ score is based on its disclosure of a supplier code of conduct that prohibits forced labor and which it integrates into purchase order terms and conditions, as well as disclosure on staff training on forced labor and a grievance mechanism for its suppliers’ workers. The company is encouraged to improve on the themes of Traceability & Risk Assessment, Recruitment, and Remedy.
