Due diligence process

Due Diligence

Our commitment to responsible sourcing through comprehensive due diligence processes.

Majlis-AL-Hikma E.A. Ltd follows the OECD Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas. Our five-step framework ensures that all minerals we source are traceable, lawfully traded, and free from contributions to conflict or human rights abuse.

Step 1: Supply Chain Mapping

Identify all actors in the supply chain from mine site to export point. Document mineral origin, transport routes, and intermediaries.

Step 2: Risk Identification

Assess risks related to conflict financing, human rights abuses, forced labor, environmental harm, and illegal taxation.

Step 3: Risk Mitigation

Implement corrective action plans to address identified risks. Engage with suppliers to improve practices and documentation.

Step 4: Third-Party Audit

Commission independent third-party audits of supply chain due diligence systems, practices, and documentation.

Step 5: Public Reporting

Publish annual reports on due diligence policies, risk assessments, and mitigation measures taken throughout the supply chain.
