Modern Slavery Statement for Man With Van Twickenham

Man With Van Twickenham is committed to conducting business with integrity, transparency, and respect for human rights. This modern slavery statement sets out the steps we take to prevent forced labour, human trafficking, and exploitation within our operations and supply chains. We recognise that modern slavery can affect many sectors, including transport, logistics, and support services, and we maintain a zero-tolerance policy toward any form of abuse, coercion, or unlawful treatment.

Our approach is based on accountability at every level of the business. All staff, contractors, and partners are expected to uphold ethical standards and follow our internal policies. We require anyone representing Man With Van Twickenham to act responsibly, respect labour rights, and report concerns immediately if they suspect wrongdoing. By embedding these principles into our daily operations, we help reduce the risk of modern slavery and strengthen responsible business conduct.

We also understand that risks may arise within our wider supplier network. For this reason, we assess relevant suppliers before and during engagement, giving particular attention to labour practices, recruitment methods, and subcontracting arrangements. Where appropriate, we request supporting documentation and conduct supplier audits to check compliance with our standards. If weaknesses are identified, we expect prompt corrective action or, where necessary, termination of the relationship.

Due Diligence and Risk Management

Our due diligence process is designed to identify and address risks early. We evaluate suppliers based on the nature of their services, geographic exposure, workforce arrangements, and history of compliance. Higher-risk areas receive increased scrutiny, and we may revisit our assessments whenever circumstances change. Man With Van Twickenham believes that careful oversight is essential to preventing exploitation and ensuring that our business remains aligned with ethical and legal expectations.

Training and Awareness

Staff awareness is a key part of our prevention strategy. Employees are informed about the signs of modern slavery, how to respond to concerns, and the importance of maintaining respectful workplace practices. Training is reviewed periodically to reflect emerging risks and improve understanding across the business. This ensures that our team can recognise suspicious behaviour and act quickly if an issue appears.

We encourage openness and trust so concerns can be raised without fear of retaliation. Reporting channels are available for employees, contractors, and other relevant parties who wish to report suspected modern slavery, unethical recruitment, unsafe working conditions, or related misconduct. Reports are handled sensitively, investigated appropriately, and escalated where necessary. We treat every allegation seriously and aim to resolve matters in a fair, responsible, and timely manner.

Monitoring, Improvement, and Review

Man With Van Twickenham monitors performance through regular checks, policy reviews, and supplier oversight. This includes considering audit findings, compliance records, and any reported concerns. Where risks are identified, we take corrective action and track progress to confirm that improvements are sustained. Our objective is not only to comply with the law, but to contribute to a supply chain that is safe, lawful, and ethically managed.

We expect all suppliers to share our commitment to human dignity. Modern slavery prevention is therefore built into our procurement expectations, contract discussions, and ongoing assessments. Suppliers may be asked to confirm that they do not use forced or trafficked labour and that they uphold fair recruitment and employment practices. We reserve the right to review or discontinue arrangements with any partner that fails to meet these standards.

This statement is reviewed annually to ensure it remains current, effective, and relevant to the changing nature of our business and supply chain. The annual review considers legal developments, operational changes, incident trends, and feedback from internal assessments. Through continual improvement, Man With Van Twickenham reinforces its commitment to ethical conduct and to the prevention of modern slavery in all forms.
