Modern Slavery Statement for Uk Manandvan
Uk Manandvan sets out this Modern Slavery Statement to make a clear, uncompromising commitment: we have a zero-tolerance policy towards slavery, servitude, forced labour and human trafficking in any part of our business or supply chain. This modern slavery policy for Uk Manandvan applies to all employees, contractors and third parties engaged with our operations. We recognise our responsibility to identify, prevent and remedy any form of exploitation and commit to continuous improvement across our global footprint.
Our anti-slavery commitment is embedded in procurement practices, contracts and corporate governance. We require suppliers to adhere to a Supplier Code of Conduct that reflects the core principles of our modern slavery compliance program. Suppliers must demonstrate lawful employment practices, voluntary work, and transparent wage and hour records. We provide training for procurement teams and require that senior managers endorse our stance by including anti-slavery clauses in procurement documentation and service agreements.
We operate a structured supplier due diligence process as part of our modern slavery risk assessment. High-risk categories and regions are monitored through targeted supplier audits, on-site inspections and document verification. The process includes supplier self-assessments, third-party audits and corrective action plans where issues are identified. As part of our supplier audits program, we prioritise suppliers based on risk indicators and maintain records of audit outcomes, remediation activity and follow-up verification.
Supply chain controls and monitoring
Uk Manandvan's approach to preventing modern slavery combines proactive risk management with enforceable contractual controls. Our procurement and compliance teams conduct supplier segmentation to identify high-risk vendors and subcontractors. We use a layered approach: policy communication, mandatory contractual clauses, periodic audits and verification of identity and labour records. We also deploy targeted supplier audits to validate working conditions and to ensure there are no hidden recruitment fees or coercive practices.
We require remediation and continuous monitoring where non-compliance is found. Typical corrective actions include worker interviews, payroll reconciliation, repayment of unlawful deductions, and the implementation of improved HR and recruitment processes. Our recovery and remediation strategy focuses on restoring worker rights while maintaining business continuity when possible. We document each case, the steps taken and the outcome to inform future risk management and to strengthen our modern slavery statement and policy.
Key elements of our supplier audit and oversight program include:
- Risk-based audits: prioritising high-risk suppliers for on-site and remote checks.
- Remediation plans: time-bound corrective actions with independent verification.
- Training and capacity building: for suppliers and internal teams on ethical labour practices.
Reporting channels, whistleblowing and annual review
We maintain multiple reporting channels to surface concerns safely and confidentially. Stakeholders can raise issues through secure, anonymous reporting mechanisms and internal escalation routes available to employees and contractors. Our whistleblowing policy ensures reports are handled impartially, investigated promptly and treated seriously. We prohibit retaliation against anyone who raises concerns in good faith and take disciplinary action where necessary to uphold our zero tolerance stance.
Our compliance framework is supported by governance oversight, KPI reporting and regular supplier performance reviews. We record incidents, track remediation, and use lessons learned to refine due diligence and audit procedures. Internal audit and legal functions review adherence to this modern slavery compliance statement and report findings to senior leadership to ensure accountability and transparency in our anti-slavery efforts.
An annual review of this modern slavery statement and our anti-slavery measures is undertaken to evaluate effectiveness, to update risk assessments and to set targets for the coming year. The review covers policy updates, supplier audit outcomes, training completion rates and remediation records. Uk Manandvan remains committed to preventing exploitation, improving supply chain transparency and strengthening partnerships that share our values. This Modern Slavery Statement for Uk Manandvan will be reviewed and updated annually to reflect progress and evolving risks.
