Modern Slavery Statement for Man With Van Feltham
Man With Van Feltham is committed to conducting business ethically, responsibly, and with respect for human rights. This Modern Slavery Statement sets out the steps taken by Man With Van Feltham to prevent modern slavery, human trafficking, forced labour, and exploitation in our operations and supply chains.
We recognise that modern slavery can affect people in many forms, including debt bondage, coercion, child labour, and abusive working conditions. Our zero-tolerance policy means that any form of slavery or exploitation is unacceptable within our business and among our suppliers, contractors, and partners.
As a moving and transport service provider, Man With Van Feltham understands the importance of maintaining transparent employment practices, fair treatment, and lawful working arrangements. We expect all individuals working with us to act with integrity and to support our commitment to preventing harm.
Our internal controls are designed to identify and reduce risks. We verify employment eligibility, monitor working conditions, and promote fair pay and safe workloads. We also make sure that recruitment practices are ethical and that no worker is charged fees or placed under pressure to accept unfair terms.
Supplier audits are an essential part of our approach. We assess suppliers based on their labour standards, recruitment methods, subcontracting practices, and compliance with applicable laws. Where necessary, we request supporting documents, review policies, and conduct periodic checks to confirm that suppliers uphold our values.
Any supplier found to be failing our standards may be required to take corrective action immediately. In serious cases, relationships may be suspended or ended. This approach applies across the network associated with Man With Van Feltham, ensuring that responsibility is shared throughout the supply chain.
We also encourage a culture where concerns can be raised safely. Our reporting channels allow workers, contractors, and business partners to report suspected abuse, unethical conduct, or breaches of this statement. Reports are treated seriously and handled confidentially wherever possible.
Anyone raising a concern will be protected from retaliation, victimisation, or unfair treatment. Issues are reviewed promptly, investigated thoroughly, and escalated where appropriate. If modern slavery risks are identified, we act quickly to safeguard individuals and prevent further harm.
To strengthen awareness, we provide guidance to relevant team members on recognising warning signs such as restricted movement, unusual control over wages, poor accommodation, or signs of intimidation. This helps Man With Van Feltham remain alert to risks in everyday operations.
This statement is supported by senior management, who are responsible for overseeing compliance and ensuring that modern slavery prevention remains a priority. Our governance framework includes regular checks on policies, recruitment practices, and supplier relationships to maintain accountability.
We are committed to annual review of this statement and our wider anti-slavery arrangements. Each year, we assess progress, consider emerging risks, and update our controls where needed. This review helps ensure that our approach remains effective, relevant, and aligned with best practice.
The principles in this statement reflect the standards expected across Man With Van Feltham. We will continue to improve our procedures, reinforce ethical conduct, and work with trusted partners who share our commitment to dignity, fairness, and respect for human rights.
