Our Policies on Modern Slavery and Human Trafficking
Compliance is integral to our business therefore, at the core of all the services we offer and how we operate. Our industry is highly controlled with many regulatory policies, employment laws and tax regulations to adhere to. We retain the services of leading tax and employment law experts to ensure our ongoing compliance with relevant legislation.
We operate a robust recruitment policy, including conducting identification and eligibility to work in the UK checks on all workers to safeguard against human trafficking or individuals being forced to work against their will.
We conduct due diligence on all workers before entering into any contractual arrangements. Due diligence includes:
- Completing a Right to Work check, ensuring that workers do have valid Right to Work in the UK.
- Ensuring all workers are paid into their own bank account. We offer the opportunity to have their payment made into a nominated account for a limited time if, we are happy with the reasons. We will always obtain consent from both the worker and the nominated account holder.
- Ensure all Limited Company contractors have their payments made into a business bank account.
- Undertake checks on Limited Company contractors so we are aware of their business structure and whether they engage any workers themselves.
Our Supply Chain
Our supply chain includes, subcontractors, operatives, and the workers we engage to undertake services on behalf of our business for our clients. We seek to build strong and long-lasting relationships with our clients and to ensure they are aware of the expectations we have of them regarding business behaviour.
Training
All internal members of staff are trained and provided with guidance on modern slavery and human trafficking, including how to spot signs of it and what to do if they suspect that it is taking place within our supply chain.
