- Risk mitigation measure: Verify, through review of associated documents and field verification, that legal requirements related to gender equality in the workplace are complied with.

For example:
1. Documentation review
a)	Employment policies and procedures include provisions ensuring gender equality and non-discrimination;
b)	Records related to recruitment, promotion, training, and remuneration demonstrate equal treatment regardless of gender;
c)	Measures addressing equal pay for equal work are documented and consistent with legal requirements;
d)	Policies and mechanisms addressing gender-based harassment and discrimination are documented and include reporting and response procedures;
e)	Employment-related documentation is available, accurate, and consistent with legal requirements for both employees and contractors.

2. Field verification
a)	Employment practices observed demonstrate equal treatment and opportunities regardless of gender;
b)	Job assignments, access to training, remuneration practices, and working conditions are applied equitably;
c)	Worker interviews do not indicate gender-based discrimination, unequal pay for similar work, or tolerance of harassment. — [bron](<https://open.fsc.org/entities/publication/0ec35ac3-2501-44b0-a2c7-7a6e80580b4c>)
- Other relevant information: Among the potential policies and mechanisms, wood suppliers may incorporate gender equality commitments into the company's Code of Conduct. This approach helps ensure that the objective of promoting gender equality is clearly communicated across all departments and embraced as part of daily operations, with a commitment to adopting best practices. Implementation may be formalized through conduct agreements or included directly in supplier contracts. — [bron](<https://open.fsc.org/entities/publication/0ec35ac3-2501-44b0-a2c7-7a6e80580b4c>)
