Modern Slavery Statement for Man With A Van Marylebone
Man With A Van Marylebone is committed to operating with integrity, transparency, and respect for human rights across every part of our business. This modern slavery statement sets out the steps we take to prevent slavery, forced labour, human trafficking, and exploitative working practices within our operations and supply chains. We recognise that zero tolerance is essential, and we uphold a firm stance against any form of abuse, coercion, or unlawful employment conditions. Our approach applies to all employees, contractors, and suppliers, regardless of role or location.
As a responsible Man With A Van Marylebone service provider, we expect the same ethical standards from everyone we work with. We assess risks in our business activities and take proportionate action where concerns arise. This includes monitoring labour practices, checking employment arrangements, and ensuring that our procurement decisions support fair treatment. We do not accept practices that compromise dignity, safety, or lawful compensation, and we actively promote awareness of modern slavery risks throughout the organisation.
Our zero-tolerance policy is supported by clear internal controls and management oversight. Any suspected breach of this policy is taken seriously and investigated promptly. If evidence indicates exploitative behaviour, we will take decisive action, which may include ending a commercial relationship, escalating the matter to relevant authorities, or strengthening due diligence measures. We believe that maintaining a modern slavery policy is not only a legal and moral obligation, but also a vital part of building a trustworthy and resilient business.
Supplier due diligence is central to our risk management process. We conduct supplier audits and periodic reviews to check for compliance with employment law, wage standards, working hours, and ethical recruitment practices. Where appropriate, we request evidence of right-to-work checks, subcontractor controls, and labour policies. We also reserve the right to reassess suppliers if their operating model presents elevated risk. These measures help ensure that our Man With A Van Marylebone supply chain remains aligned with our values.
To reinforce accountability, we use a range of reporting channels so concerns can be raised safely and in confidence. Staff and partners are encouraged to report any suspected case of modern slavery, unsafe labour conditions, or inappropriate conduct without fear of retaliation. Reports are handled sensitively and escalated to the appropriate internal decision-makers for review. This reporting culture helps us detect problems early and respond effectively when action is needed.
Training and communication also play an important role in prevention. We provide relevant personnel with information about warning signs, responsibilities, and escalation procedures. By keeping expectations clear, we support a workplace where people understand that exploitation has no place in our operations. The commitment of Man With A Van Marylebone to ethical conduct is reflected in our everyday decisions, from hiring and procurement to supplier oversight and operational management.
We will review this statement annually to confirm its continued relevance and to measure the effectiveness of our actions. The annual review will consider changes in legislation, business structure, supplier risk, and the outcome of any investigations or audits. Where improvements are identified, we will update our controls and strengthen our prevention measures. This process ensures our response to modern slavery remains current, practical, and robust.
In summary, Man With A Van Marylebone is dedicated to preventing modern slavery in all forms. Through a clear zero-tolerance policy, regular supplier audits, confidential reporting channels, and an annual review cycle, we aim to promote ethical business practices and safeguard vulnerable people. We understand that vigilance is essential, and we remain committed to continuous improvement in identifying and addressing modern slavery risks across our operations and supply chain.
