Our Policies
Our Modern Slavery Policy, along with our Corporate Social Responsibility, Anti-Bribery and Corruption policies reflect our commitment to acting ethically and with integrity in all our business relationships.
Our Processes for Managing Risk
● In order to assess the risk of modern slavery, we use the following processes: ● Identify and assess potential risk areas when considering taking on new suppliers and regularly review our existing supply chains
● Review the potential for risk at regular intervals, including the possibility of re-auditing a supplier or conducting spot checks
● Protect whistle blowers
After due consideration, we have not identified any significant risks of modern slavery, forced labour, or human trafficking in our supply chain. However, we continue to be alert to the potential for problems.
