​

This policy applies to employees, workers and contractors.

Slavery and Human Trafficking remains a hidden blight on our global society. We all have a
responsibility to be alert to the risks, however small, in our business and in the wider supply
chain.
 

Our Commitment

The Company is committed to ensuring that there is no modern slavery or human trafficking
in our supply chains or in any part of our business.

We are committed to acting ethically and with integrity in all our business relationships and
taking reasonable steps to ensure slavery and human trafficking are not taking place in any
business or organisation that has any sort of a business relationship with our Company.
 

Due diligence processes for slavery and human trafficking

The Company has zero tolerance to slavery and human trafficking. We expect all those in
our supply chain and contractors to comply with our values.

As part of our initiative to identify and mitigate risk the Company has in place systems to
encourage the reporting of concerns and the protection of whistleblowers.

Our supply chain providers are always with a UK provider and we expect these entities to
have suitable anti-slavery and human trafficking policies and processes.
 

Training

The management team are responsible for compliance within their respective departments
and in their supplier relationships and have been trained accordingly.

There is a Company induction where our policies, procedures and expectations are outlined.
 

Our effectiveness in combating slavery and human trafficking

The Company uses the following key performance indicators to measure how effective we
have been to ensure that slavery and human trafficking is not taking place in any part of our
business or supply chains:
 

• use of labour monitoring, right to work documentation and payroll audits;

• we maintain a level of communication and personal contact with the next link in the
  supply chain to ensure their understanding of, and compliance with, our expectation; and

• we regularly review supply chain policies, codes of conduct and our working practices to show commitment.
