Modern Slavery Statement for Man With Van S
Man With Van S is committed to conducting business with integrity, fairness, and respect for human rights. This modern slavery statement sets out our approach to identifying, preventing, and addressing the risks of modern slavery and human trafficking within our operations and supply chains. We recognise that every person has the right to work freely, safely, and without exploitation, and we maintain a zero-tolerance policy toward any form of forced labour, servitude, debt bondage, child labour, or abuse of vulnerability.
Our business activities include transport, removals, logistics support, and related services. Because these activities involve multiple workers, subcontractors, and suppliers, we understand the importance of robust controls. We apply due diligence to our own workforce and to those who provide goods or services on our behalf. In this context, the Man With Van S anti-slavery commitment is built into our internal procedures, risk assessments, and supplier onboarding processes.
We expect all employees, contractors, and business partners to uphold the same principles. The Man With Van S slavery and human trafficking statement is reinforced through clear employment standards, lawful working practices, and fair treatment at every stage of engagement. Any indication of coercion, withholding of wages, document retention, or unsafe working conditions is taken seriously and investigated promptly.
Supplier screening is a key part of our compliance framework. We carry out supplier audits and periodic reviews to assess labour practices, documentation, subcontracting arrangements, and working conditions. Where risks are identified, we require corrective action and monitor progress. If a supplier fails to meet our expectations or is unwilling to improve, we will suspend or end the relationship. This approach helps us protect the integrity of the Man With Van S modern slavery compliance programme and reduce exposure across the supply chain.
We also provide training and awareness briefings to relevant staff so they can recognise warning signs such as restricted movement, intimidation, unsafe accommodation, or unexplained deductions from pay. Managers are encouraged to ask questions about labour sources, hiring methods, and subcontracted services. By promoting awareness, the Man With Van S ethical supply chain approach supports a culture of vigilance and responsibility.
Our reporting channels are designed to make concerns easy to raise and to ensure that issues are handled confidentially and without retaliation. Workers and partners may report suspected misconduct through internal management routes or whistleblowing procedures. All reports are reviewed promptly, and where necessary, escalated for investigation. We are committed to protecting anyone who speaks up in good faith and to responding to concerns with discretion, seriousness, and respect.
In addition to our internal controls, we expect transparency from suppliers regarding recruitment practices, labour providers, and the use of subcontractors. We review contracts and purchasing arrangements to help ensure that labour is obtained responsibly and legally. The Man With Van S modern slavery prevention measures are designed not only to detect problems, but also to reduce the chance of harm before it occurs.
This statement is reviewed annually to reflect changes in legislation, operational structure, and risk exposure. The annual review also considers audit outcomes, reported concerns, corrective actions, and any lessons learned from due diligence activity. Where improvements are identified, we update our procedures and strengthen controls so that the Man With Van S anti-trafficking policy remains effective and relevant.
Man With Van S reaffirms its commitment to acting responsibly and ethically in every part of its business. Through a zero-tolerance policy, supplier audits, accessible reporting channels, and annual review, we aim to maintain a workplace and supply chain free from exploitation. We will continue to improve our safeguards and uphold the dignity and rights of every individual connected with our operations.
