Modern Slavery Act

Organisational Structure & Supply Chain

This statement sets out the Company’s actions to understand all potential modern slavery risks related to its business and to put in place steps that are aimed at ensuring that there is no slavery or human trafficking in its own business and its supply chains.

The Company has zero tolerance to modern slavery and human trafficking and is committed to acting ethically and with integrity in all our business relationships implementing and enforcing effective systems and controls to ensure slavery and human trafficking is not taking place anywhere in our supply chains.

The Company is a Private Limited Company based in Liverpool and has an annual turnover less than £30 million. 

The Managing Director is responsible for compliance and for supplier relationships.

Due diligence

As part of our initiative to identify and mitigate risk, where possible, we build long standing relationships with local suppliers and customers and make clear our expectations of business behaviour.

With regards to national or international supply chains, our point of contact is preferably with a UK Company or branch and we expect these entities to have suitable anti-slavery and human trafficking policies and processes.

Training

To ensure a level of understanding of the risks of modern slavery and human trafficking in our supply chains and our business, we provide copies of this policy to  all employees and contractors.

Monitoring

In light of the introduction of the Modern Slavery Act 2015 we use the following key performance indicators (KPIs) to measure how effective we have been to ensure that slavery and human trafficking is not taking place in any part of our business or supply chains:

• Ensure the supply chain understand and comply with our expectations.
• Require all relevant employees and contractors are aware of the Modern Slavery Act 2015.
