Where we are not the operator, we expect an equivalent grievance system to be in place by our business partner. Handling grievances in our supply chains
As set out in our Human Rights Expectations of Suppliers, we expect our suppliers to provide appropriate mechanisms for raising complaints, and where necessary, provide remedy. This expectation is supported by specific compliance requirements related to remedy and grievance mechanisms within our templates for standard supplier contracts.

In practice, and often because of site visits, we have seen there is a need to raise awareness of both individuals’ rights, as well as the mechanisms available to them. In certain cases, we might establish a site-level grievance channel managed by a specialist third party. Workers will in such cases typically be informed of how to use the channel and its purpose by the operators themselves, and are free to contact the operators via e.g., text or through phone calls in workers’ native language.

This poor treatment could involve a breach of individual employment
rights, or bullying or harassment, and the complainant is seeking redress or justice for themselves. The person making the complaint therefore has a vested interest
in the outcome of the complaint and for this reason is expected to provide evidence to prove their case. Whistleblowing is used when raising a concern about danger
or illegality that affects others, for example customers, members of the public, the environment or Norwegian. The person blowing the whistle is usually not directly
or personally affected by the danger or illegality. Safety Net is the reporting system used for actual or potential health and safety issues in the context of aviation
safety, as well as other HSE hazards or concerns that can impact Norwegian’s operations
