Policies We operate several internal policies to ensure that we are conducting business in an ethical and transparent manner. These include the following:

Recruitment and selection policy – We conduct thorough screenings on all job applications, including background checks, reference checks, and identity documents verification, ensuring that people with potentially exploitative backgrounds are not hired.

Whistleblowing policy – Employees, clients, and other stakeholders can report any suspicions or concerns about modern slavery. Whistleblowers are protected from reprisal, and their identities remain anonymous during the investigation.

Procurement policy – We perform extensive due diligence before working with any suppliers to evaluate their adherence to moral standards and anti-slavery laws. This entails examining their present slavery-related policies, practices, and historical results.

Safeguarding policy – Our safeguarding strategy includes thorough training and awareness programmes for all staff members, with an emphasis on recognising signs of modern slavery. This guarantees that our staff members have the skills required to detect and respond to any incidents of exploitation.

We make sure our suppliers are aware of our policies and adhere to the same standards.
