Duty of Care to Suppliers Policy

On 19 July DFID launched the new ‘Duty of Care to Suppliers’ policy with immediate effect. This policy aims to clarify DFID’s position in relation to Duty of Care and how it will be addressed as part of our risk management and procurement processes. The policy has a particular focus on Suppliers who will be operating in dangerous environments.
Further information on this policy and how it will be applied to DFID’s procurement processes is provided in the attached Supplier Information Note along with contact details for any related enquiries you may have.
