apply the highest standards of ethical conduct and integrity in all our business activities in the UK and overseas. Transparency We are committed to ensuring there is transparency in our business and in our approach to tackling slavery and human trafficking throughout our supply chains. Working with us We expect the same high standards from all of our colleagues, suppliers and other business partners. As part of our contracting processes we include specific prohibitions against the use of forced, compulsory or trafficked labour, or anyone held in slavery or servitude. We expect those we work with to hold their own suppliers to the same high standards. What you must do The prevention, detection and reporting of slavery and human trafficking is the responsibility of all those working with us or under our control. Prevention You must not engage in any activity that might lead to, or suggest, a breach of this policy. If you think there might be a problem with this policy, or if you have any questions or concerns about it, you should speak to your line manager and/or our Director of Finance as soon as possible. Detection If you have a concern or suspicion that slavery or human trafficking might be taking place in any part of our business or supply chain, you must report it to your line manager and our Director of Finance at the earliest possible stage. If you are unsure about whether or not a particular act, the treatment of workers more generally, or their working conditions constitutes slavery or human trafficking, we encourage you to still raise it with your line manager and our Director of Finance. Reporting If you believe or suspect that slavery or human trafficking might be taking place in any part of our business or supply chain, or that it may occur, you must report it to your line manager and our Director of Finance as soon as possible. If for any reason
