Modern Slavery Statement for Man With Van Wembley
Man With Van Wembley is committed to conducting business with integrity, fairness, and respect for human rights. This Modern Slavery Statement sets out the steps we take to prevent modern slavery, human trafficking, forced labour, debt bondage, and child exploitation in our operations and supply chains. Our approach reflects a clear zero-tolerance policy toward any form of abuse or exploitation. We recognise that even low-risk industries must remain vigilant, and we expect the same standards from all employees, contractors, and suppliers associated with Man With Van Wembley.
Our commitment applies across every part of our business, from recruitment and workforce management to subcontracting and procurement. We do not accept any practice that undermines dignity or freedom. All workers must be employed voluntarily, treated fairly, and paid in line with applicable legal requirements. We also ensure that no person is forced to work through threats, coercion, retention of documents, or unfair restrictions on movement. These principles guide the way Man With Van Wembley services are delivered and managed.
We review our internal processes to reduce the risk of exploitation. This includes checking employment eligibility, maintaining transparent hiring practices, and ensuring that staff understand their rights and responsibilities. Training is provided where appropriate so managers can identify warning signs such as unusual dependency, restricted communication, or unexplained control by third parties. In addition, our Man With Van Wembley team is encouraged to remain alert to possible concerns within the wider logistics and transport environment.
Supplier due diligence is a central part of our approach. Before engaging suppliers, we assess their labour practices, ethical standards, and compliance history. Where relevant, we require written confirmation that they share our commitment to preventing slavery and human trafficking. We reserve the right to conduct supplier audits or request supporting evidence to verify compliance. If a supplier fails to meet expected standards, we will seek corrective action and may suspend or end the relationship where necessary.
Our monitoring does not stop after onboarding. We carry out periodic reviews of supplier relationships, especially where services involve subcontracting, labour provision, or cross-border sourcing. Audits may include policy checks, workforce records review, and confirmation that pay, working hours, and accommodation arrangements are lawful and ethical. Through these steps, Man With Van Wembley aims to ensure that ethical conduct is embedded throughout the supply chain rather than assumed.
We also maintain clear reporting channels so employees and stakeholders can raise concerns safely and without fear of retaliation. Any suspicion of modern slavery, unethical recruitment, intimidation, or poor labour conditions should be reported immediately through internal management routes. Reports are treated seriously, investigated promptly, and handled with confidentiality wherever possible. Retaliation against anyone who raises a genuine concern will not be tolerated, and all cases are reviewed with appropriate urgency.
If a concern is substantiated, we will take decisive action. This may include further investigation, corrective measures, engagement with suppliers, reporting to the appropriate authorities, or termination of contracts. We understand that effective prevention depends on consistent action, not just policy statements. As part of the wider Man With Van Wembley modern slavery commitment, we aim to protect vulnerable people and uphold lawful, ethical business practices at every stage of service delivery.
This statement is reviewed annually to ensure it remains current, effective, and aligned with legal obligations and operational realities. The annual review considers any incidents, audit findings, changes in legislation, and improvements needed to strengthen our controls. Where risks change, we update our procedures accordingly. Through continuous review and accountability, Man With Van Wembley reinforces its dedication to preventing exploitation and promoting responsible business conduct across all activities.
