Modern Slavery Policy
Modern slavery is both a crime and a grave violation of fundamental human rights. It encompasses practices such as slavery, servitude, forced or compulsory labour, and human trafficking. These practices are defined by exploiting individuals by depriving them of their liberty for personal or commercial gain. As a business, we unequivocally condemn such actions and will never engage in, support, or condone them.
We maintain a strict zero-tolerance approach to modern slavery. We will not do business with any entities involved in or supporting these activities. Our commitment extends to promoting transparency within our organisation and throughout our supply chains, in alignment with our obligations under the Modern Slavery Act 2015.
Should we discover that any individual or organisation connected to our business is engaged in, supporting, or failing to prevent modern slavery where they have the ability to do so, we will immediately sever all ties with them. Additionally, we will evaluate whether we have a legal obligation to report the matter and will act accordingly.
This policy applies to all individuals working for or on behalf of our organisation, including employees, directors, officers, agency staff, contractors, consultants, volunteers, interns, third-party representatives, and business partners.
Failure to comply with this policy may result in disciplinary measures, up to and including dismissal or contract termination. We may also pursue legal action where necessary.
If you have any questions about this policy or concerns about related activities that could impact our business, please contact the designated Anti-Slavery Officer [Raj Sharma], who oversees the implementation and enforcement of this policy.
As agreed by the Board of Directors, this policy is effective from 9th November 2023 and covers Financial Year 24/25, Year 25/26 and Year 26/27.
