We operate globally and our commitment to ethical business practices extends to all aspects of our operations.  We are committed to conducting business responsibly, ethically, and transparently across all aspects of our operations.

Our Policies

We maintain policies and procedures designed to support ethical business conduct, protect human rights, and reduce the risk of modern slavery within our organisation and supply chain.

Our policies include:

  1.  Code of Conduct: Our Code of Conduct sets out the ethical standards and behaviours expected of all employees, contractors, and business partners. It reinforces our commitment to acting with integrity and prohibits all forms of forced labour, human trafficking, and exploitation.

  2.  Supplier Code of Conduct: We expect suppliers, contractors, and other business partners to operate in accordance with the same high ethical standards that we apply to ourselves. Our Supplier Code of Conduct includes expectations relating to labour rights, fair working conditions, human rights protections, and the prevention of modern slavery.

  3.  Whistle blowing policy: We maintain a Whistleblowing Policy that encourages employees and other stakeholders to raise concerns regarding suspected misconduct, unethical behaviour, or legal non-compliance, including concerns relating to modern slavery or human trafficking. Reports can be made confidentially and without fear of retaliation.

Our governance and monitoring processes are designed to promote transparency, accountability, and compliance with applicable legal and regulatory requirements.

  5. Due Diligence and Risk Assessment

We undertake ongoing due diligence and risk assessment activities to identify and address potential modern slavery risks within our operations and supply chains. This includes:

These activities include:

  • Supply Chain Mapping: We have mapped our supply chain to identify areas where there may be a higher risk of modern slavery.

  •  Risk Assessment: We have conducted a risk assessment to evaluate the likelihood and severity of the risk of modern slavery in our business and supply chain.

Training and Awareness

We provide training to our employees to raise awareness of modern slavery risks and to ensure that our employees understand how to identify and report any concerns related to modern slavery.

We aim to foster a culture in which employees feel confident raising concerns and contributing to the prevention of unethical practices.

Monitoring and Reporting

We regularly monitor our operations and supply chain to identify and address any instances of modern slavery. We encourage employees, suppliers, and other stakeholders to report concerns relating to modern slavery through our established reporting channels.

Where concerns are identified, we will investigate appropriately and take corrective action where necessary.

Future Commitments

We are committed to continuously improving our efforts to prevent modern slavery. In the upcoming year, we plan to conduct an audit of current and new suppliers in relation to Modern Slavery as well as provide further training to our employees on identifying and reporting risks of Modern Slavery.
