Modern Slavery Statement for Man With A Van Bounds Green
Man With A Van Bounds Green is committed to conducting business ethically, responsibly, and with zero tolerance for modern slavery, human trafficking, forced labour, and all forms of exploitation. This statement sets out the steps taken by Man With A Van Bounds Green to prevent slavery and trafficking within our operations and supply chains. We recognise that even service-based businesses can be exposed to risk through recruitment, subcontractors, and third-party suppliers, and we take those risks seriously.
Our approach is guided by respect for human rights, lawful employment practices, and transparent working relationships. Man With A Van Bounds Green requires all personnel and business partners to uphold ethical standards consistent with our values. We expect the same from anyone who provides goods or services on our behalf, including transport-related contractors, maintenance providers, and administrative suppliers.
We operate a strict zero-tolerance policy toward modern slavery. Any evidence or suspicion of exploitation is treated as a serious concern and investigated promptly. Where risks are identified, we will take proportionate action, which may include corrective measures, suspension of work, or termination of the relationship. This policy applies across our business and to all parties acting in our name.
To reduce risk in the Man With A Van Bounds Green supply chain, we carry out supplier due diligence and periodic audits. Suppliers are assessed against criteria such as labour practices, right-to-work checks, wage compliance, subcontracting controls, and evidence of ethical recruitment. Higher-risk suppliers may be subject to more frequent reviews, document checks, and site visits where appropriate.
Our audits are designed to identify weaknesses early and encourage improvement. When issues arise, suppliers may be asked to provide evidence of remediation, updated policies, or training records. If a supplier cannot demonstrate satisfactory progress, we reserve the right to end the arrangement. This helps ensure that our business relationships support safe and fair working conditions.
We also maintain clear reporting channels so concerns can be raised without delay. Employees, contractors, and suppliers are encouraged to report any suspected modern slavery, unsafe labour practice, or suspicious recruitment activity through internal management routes. Reports are handled discreetly, and all concerns are reviewed seriously, without retaliation against those who speak up in good faith.
Training and awareness are important parts of our prevention work. Relevant staff receive guidance on recognising warning signs such as unexplained control over workers, withheld documents, poor living conditions, debt bondage, or inconsistent employment records. This helps Man With A Van Bounds Green strengthen oversight and respond quickly if risks appear within operations or in the wider supply chain.
We expect suppliers to cooperate fully with our requests for information and to maintain records that demonstrate legal and ethical employment practices. Man With A Van Bounds Green will continue to review supplier performance, contract terms, and onboarding checks to ensure that modern slavery risks remain low and are managed effectively. Our objective is not only compliance, but continual improvement.
This statement is reviewed annually to reflect changes in law, business activity, and supply chain risk. The annual review helps us measure the effectiveness of our controls, update policies where needed, and confirm ongoing commitment at senior level. Any significant findings from audits, reports, or internal reviews are considered during this process.
Man With A Van Bounds Green remains dedicated to maintaining a responsible business model based on dignity, transparency, and accountability. By combining a zero-tolerance policy, supplier audits, reporting channels, and annual review, we aim to prevent modern slavery and protect the integrity of our operations and partnerships.
