Our Modern Slavery Policy applies to all employees, contractors and third-party representatives including suppliers, vendors, and recruitment agencies.

What is Modern Slavery?

Modern Slavery refers to various forms of exploitation and violation of fundamental human rights where individuals are forced to work, controlled, or owned by others through coercion or deceit.Modern Slavery often operates in hidden sectors of the economy and can take forms such as slavery, forced labour, bonded labour, human trafficking, exploitation and forced marriage. 

Modern slavery can take many forms including:

• Child Labour – Exploiting children in hazardous or coercive work‍
• Debt Bondage – Working to repay debts under unfair conditions
• Forced Labour – Work performed under threat or coercion
• Forced Marriage – Marriage without free and informed consent
• Human Trafficking – Movement of people for exploitation through coercion or deceit
• Slavery – Exercising ownership over another person

Recognising the signs

Modern Slavery can be complex and multi-faceted and, therefore, difficult to identify. Our business will endeavour to identify the following indicators where a person may be being exploited: Modern Slavery can be complex and multi-faceted and, therefore, difficult to identify. Our business will endeavour to identify the following indicators where a person may be being exploited: 

• The individual is not in possession of their own passport, ID or travel documents;  
• Is acting as though they are being instructed or coached by someone else; 
• Allows others to speak for them when spoken to directly; 
• Appears withdrawn, frightened or has physical indicators of slavery, such as injuries; 
• Unable to contact friends or family freely; 
• Has limited social interaction or contact with people outside their immediate environment; 
• Acts with hostility or has difficulty concentrating due to trauma; 
• Has few possessions; 
• Has little or no control over their finances or no access to a bank account, or they are being significantly overcharged for their accommodation; and 
• Is living in a very poorly maintained and overcrowded place. 

We recognise these indicators are not exhaustive and, in some circumstances, may not imply there are Modern Slavery practices taking place.
