This Modern Slavery Statement outlines our commitment to combating these issues and our actions to ensure that our operations and supply chains remain free from exploitation.

Our Approach:

  2. Supplier Due Diligence: We conduct thorough due diligence when selecting suppliers, particularly those involved in the production and distribution of our products and services. We aim to work with suppliers who demonstrate a strong commitment to human rights, fair labor practices, and ethical business conduct.
  3. Policies and Contracts: We have implemented internal policies and procedures that explicitly prohibit slavery, human trafficking, and forced labor within our organization and supply chain. These policies are communicated to our employees, suppliers, and business partners.
  4. Employee Awareness and Training: We provide training and awareness programs to our employees to ensure they understand the signs of modern slavery and their role in preventing it. We encourage the reporting of any concerns or suspicions related to modern slavery or human trafficking.
  5. Reporting and Whistleblowing: We maintain a confidential reporting mechanism that allows employees, suppliers, and other stakeholders to report any suspicions or incidents related to modern slavery. We take such reports seriously and investigate them promptly, taking appropriate action if necessary.
  6. Continuous Improvement: We are committed to continuously improving our practices to combat modern slavery. We regularly review and update our policies and procedures to ensure they align with best practices and comply with relevant legislation.

Our Future Steps:

As part of our ongoing commitment to combat modern slavery and human trafficking, we are taking the following steps:

  1. Collaboration: We actively collaborate with industry organizations, NGOs, and governmental bodies to exchange knowledge and best practices related to combating modern slavery. We seek partnerships that help us strengthen our efforts in this area.
  2. Risk Assessment: We conduct regular risk assessments within our supply chain to identify areas of potential vulnerability to modern slavery. We then take appropriate actions to address any identified risks.
  3. Supplier Engagement: We engage with our suppliers to ensure they understand our expectations and commitment to combatting modern slavery. We encourage them to adopt similar policies and practices and work together to address any issues that arise.
  4. External Verification: We aim to engage external auditors and independent third parties to conduct audits and verification of our supply chain practices. This helps provide an additional level of assurance and transparency.
  5. Annual Review: We conduct an annual review of this Modern Slavery Statement and our related policies and procedures to ensure their effectiveness, relevance, and alignment with emerging industry standards.
