At Man With Van Harringay, we recognise that modern slavery, human trafficking, forced labour, and child labour are severe violations of human rights. We are committed to conducting our business with integrity, transparency, and respect for all people. This statement sets out the steps taken by Man with Van Harringay to prevent slavery and exploitation within our operations and supply chain.

We maintain a zero-tolerance policy toward modern slavery in every part of our organisation. This applies to our employees, contractors, agency workers, and suppliers. Any breach of this policy is treated as a serious matter and may result in disciplinary action, termination of business relationships, or reporting to the relevant authorities where appropriate.

Our approach begins with risk awareness. Although our business model is service-based, we understand that risks can still exist in outsourced services, transport support, labour supply, and procurement. Man With Van Harringay assesses these risks regularly and expects the same commitment from all third parties acting on our behalf.

We set clear expectations through contracts and supplier standards. All suppliers to Man with Van Harringay are required to confirm that they comply with applicable labour laws and prohibit forced, bonded, or involuntary labour. We also ask suppliers to demonstrate that they have processes in place to monitor their own supply chains.

To support this commitment, we carry out supplier audits where relevant and proportionate. These audits may include document checks, questionnaire reviews, and discussions about working conditions, recruitment practices, and worker rights. When concerns are identified, we require corrective action and monitor progress until the issue is resolved.

Our internal procedures are designed to ensure that decisions are made responsibly. Staff involved in procurement and operational planning are encouraged to consider human rights risks when selecting suppliers and allocating work. This helps ensure that Man With Van Harringay continues to work only with businesses that share our ethical standards.

Training and awareness are important parts of our programme. Relevant team members receive guidance on spotting warning signs, such as unusually restricted working hours, withheld wages, identity document retention, or signs of coercion. By improving awareness, Man With Van Harringay strengthens its ability to identify and respond to concerns early.

We also provide clear reporting channels so that employees, contractors, and business partners can raise concerns safely. Reports may be made through management, human resources, or another designated internal route. All concerns are handled seriously, investigated promptly, and treated with confidentiality and respect for the person raising the issue.

If a potential case of modern slavery is identified, we act immediately. This may include suspending work with the relevant supplier, seeking further evidence, supporting remedial action, and escalating the matter to the appropriate authorities when necessary. Man With Van Harringay will never ignore credible concerns or allow unsafe practices to continue unchecked.

Our commitment is reviewed regularly to ensure it remains effective and up to date. We carry out an annual review of this statement, our controls, and our supply chain practices. The review considers changes in legislation, business activity, supplier risk, and the effectiveness of our monitoring measures.

Where improvements are needed, we update our policies and procedures accordingly. This may include stronger due diligence, additional supplier checks, improved training, or enhanced reporting arrangements. Through continuous review, Man With Van Harringay aims to strengthen prevention and accountability year after year.

As a responsible business, Man With Van Harringay is committed to upholding dignity, fairness, and lawful working practices. We expect everyone connected with our organisation to support this aim and help ensure that modern slavery has no place in our operations or supply chains.
