Modern Slavery Statement ??? Cleaning Company Commitment

Our Cleaning Company is committed to preventing all forms of exploitation. This modern slavery statement sets out our approach to eliminating forced labour, human trafficking and related abuses throughout our operations and supply chain. We maintain a zero-tolerance policy and expect the same standard from our suppliers, subcontractors and partners. Our anti-slavery policy is embedded in procurement and contracting processes and reinforced through training.

We require adherence to a supplier code of conduct that explicitly prohibits any form of coercion, debt bondage, underpayment, withholding of identity documents or restriction of movement. To support these requirements we operate a program of supplier audits and due diligence, including on-site visits, documentation reviews and worker interviews. Our slavery and human trafficking statement is regularly shared with suppliers and forms part of contractual obligations.

Zero-Tolerance Policy and Employee Expectations

We enforce a strict zero-tolerance policy toward modern slavery and exploitation. All employees receive mandatory training on the signs of exploitation and their responsibilities under our anti-slavery policy. Managers are trained to assess risk, escalate concerns and act promptly. Any verified breach of this modern slavery policy will result in disciplinary action, up to and including termination, and may be referred to law enforcement.

We monitor compliance through targeted supplier audits and continuous risk assessments. Our supplier audits include checks on:

• Recruitment practices and recruitment fee policies
• Payment and wage records
• Working hours, accommodation and identity documentation
• Subcontracting and supply chain transparency

Reporting Channels, Protection and Investigation

We provide multiple confidential reporting channels to ensure workers and third parties can raise concerns without fear of retaliation. Reports can be made through an independent whistleblower service, an internal reporting portal, or via management escalation routes. All reports are treated seriously, investigated promptly and with respect for confidentiality. We explicitly protect whistleblowers from retaliation.

Our investigative process uses trained investigators and, where appropriate, external specialists. Outcomes include remediation for victims, corrective actions for suppliers, contract termination and law enforcement referrals. We maintain records of incidents, corrective measures and outcomes as part of our continuous improvement cycle.

As part of this anti-modern slavery statement, we set measurable targets and performance indicators, including audit completion rates, supplier remediation metrics and staff training completion. These indicators help us prioritise high-risk areas and allocate resources effectively. We also require key suppliers to provide regular attestations of compliance and to participate in joint improvement plans where gaps are identified.

Our slavery and human trafficking statement is supported by governance structures that include senior leadership oversight and a designated compliance officer responsible for monitoring implementation. We integrate human rights considerations into procurement decisions and risk registers, ensuring that strategic sourcing choices reduce the likelihood of modern slavery risks.

We pledge to review and update this anti-slavery policy and statement at least annually. The annual review evaluates the effectiveness of our supplier audits, reporting channels, training programmes and remediation processes, and results in a documented action plan. Where necessary, we will strengthen contractual clauses, expand audit coverage and increase resources to address identified risks.

In conclusion, this modern slavery statement reflects our ongoing commitment to eradicating exploitation in our cleaning operations and supply chain. We will continue to work collaboratively with suppliers, industry peers and relevant stakeholders to uphold human rights, drive transparency and ensure that our business and procurement practices remain free from forced labour and trafficking.
