Our Commitment

Modern Slavery and Human Trafficking
Modern slavery is a term used to encompass slavery, servitude, forced and compulsory labour, bonded and child labour and human trafficking. Human trafficking is where a person arranges or facilitates the travel of another person with a view to that person being exploited. Modern slavery is a crime and a violation of fundamental human rights.

We shall be a company that expects everyone working with us to support and uphold the following measures to safeguard against modern slavery:

  • We have a zero-tolerance approach to modern slavery within our business and supply chain

  • We recognise that our greatest exposure to the risk of modern day slavery and people trafficking is within our supply chain. To tackle this risk, we have carried out a further review of our suppliers to ensure that they have appropriate modern day slavery policies and procedures. We will continue monitoring our vendors to ensure they are compliant with modern day slavery legislation requirements.

  • The prevention, detection and reporting of modern slavery in any part of our business is the responsibility of all those working for us or on our behalf. Workers must not engage in, facilitate or fail to report any activity that might lead to, or suggest, a breach of this policy.
