Modern Slavery Statement for Man With Van Norwoodgreen
At Man With Van Norwoodgreen, we are committed to conducting business with integrity, fairness, and respect for human rights. This Modern Slavery Statement sets out the actions we take to prevent forced labour, human trafficking, debt bondage, and other forms of exploitation within our operations and supply chains. We recognise that modern slavery can occur in many industries, and we maintain a zero-tolerance policy toward any practice that undermines the dignity and freedom of individuals.
Our commitment extends across every aspect of the business, including recruitment, subcontracting, purchasing, and day-to-day operational decisions. The leadership team of Man With Van Norwoodgreen is responsible for ensuring that anti-slavery controls are embedded in company procedures. We expect all employees, contractors, and business partners to act ethically, follow legal requirements, and support a workplace where lawful, fair, and transparent employment practices are always upheld.
To reinforce this commitment, we conduct risk-based supplier audits to assess labour standards, working conditions, and compliance with relevant laws. These audits may include document checks, review of onboarding processes, and evaluation of supplier policies. Where concerns are identified, we require corrective action and monitor progress closely. If a supplier cannot demonstrate acceptable standards, we reserve the right to suspend or end the relationship.
Our procurement approach prioritises responsible sourcing and clear expectations. Suppliers to Man With Van Norwoodgreen must confirm that they do not use trafficked, coerced, or underage workers and that wages, working hours, and conditions meet legal and ethical standards. We seek assurances that labour agencies, subcontractors, and any tiered suppliers also uphold the same principles. This helps us reduce hidden risks and strengthens accountability throughout the chain.
We encourage a culture where concerns can be raised without fear. Any employee, supplier, or stakeholder who suspects modern slavery or related misconduct is urged to use our internal reporting channels. Reports may be made confidentially and will be handled with sensitivity, fairness, and urgency. Allegations are reviewed promptly, and appropriate action is taken, which may include investigation, escalation, supplier review, or involvement of relevant authorities where necessary.
Training and awareness also form an important part of our prevention strategy. Staff involved in recruitment, purchasing, logistics, or contract management receive guidance on recognising warning signs such as restricted movement, excessive working hours, withheld documents, or unusual dependency on third parties. By improving awareness, Man With Van Norwoodgreen strengthens its ability to identify risk early and respond effectively before harm occurs.
Our commitment is reviewed through an annual governance process. At least once every year, we assess the effectiveness of our controls, consider changes in legislation or market conditions, and evaluate whether further action is needed. This annual review helps ensure that our anti-slavery measures remain practical, current, and aligned with best practice. Findings from the review inform updates to policies, procedures, and supplier standards.
Where necessary, we update onboarding checks, contract clauses, and due diligence requirements to reflect emerging risks. We also consider whether additional supplier audits, targeted training, or enhanced monitoring should be introduced. This continuous improvement approach supports the long-term resilience of Man With Van Norwoodgreen and reinforces our determination to prevent exploitation across all business relationships.
In summary, Man With Van Norwoodgreen stands firmly against modern slavery in all forms. Through our zero-tolerance policy, supplier audits, clear reporting channels, and annual review process, we aim to protect vulnerable people and maintain the highest ethical standards. We are committed to acting responsibly, improving continuously, and ensuring that our business remains a place of lawful, respectful, and transparent practice.
