Modern Slavery Statement for Man With A Van Isleworth

Man With A Van Isleworth 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 slavery, servitude, forced labour, and human trafficking within our operations and supply chains. We recognise that modern slavery can affect any industry, and we maintain a zero-tolerance policy toward any form of exploitation.

As a responsible man with a van in Isleworth service provider, we expect the same ethical standards from our employees, contractors, and suppliers. Our commitment extends beyond compliance with law; it is rooted in our values and our duty to protect people. We aim to ensure that every decision supports fair treatment, safe working conditions, and lawful employment practices.

We have established internal controls to reduce the risk of modern slavery in our business. These include right-to-work checks, clear employment terms, and procedures to identify unusual labour arrangements. In addition, our team receives guidance on recognising warning signs such as restricted movement, withheld wages, intimidation, or lack of personal freedom.

Supplier due diligence is a central part of our approach. When engaging with third parties, Man With A Van Isleworth assesses the nature of the service, the country of origin, and the labour risks involved. We seek assurances that suppliers comply with applicable labour laws and uphold ethical employment standards.

To strengthen this process, we conduct supplier audits where appropriate. These audits may include document checks, review of working practices, and confirmation that subcontractors also meet our expectations. If concerns are identified, we request immediate corrective action. Where remediation is not possible or where serious breaches are found, we reserve the right to end the relationship.

Our procurement decisions favour partners that demonstrate openness, accountability, and respect for human rights. We understand that a strong supply chain relies on shared responsibility. Therefore, we make it clear that any Isleworth man and van partner, subcontractor, or logistics provider working with us must follow the same zero-tolerance policy against exploitation.

Employees and workers are encouraged to speak up if they notice anything concerning. We provide multiple reporting channels so that issues can be raised safely and confidentially. Reports may be made to a line manager, a designated compliance representative, or through our internal whistleblowing process. No one will face retaliation for making a genuine report in good faith.

All concerns are taken seriously and handled promptly. Once a report is received, we assess the facts, determine the appropriate response, and take corrective action where needed. This may include further investigation, suspension of a supplier relationship, or referral to the relevant authorities. We aim to support anyone who may be at risk and to prevent further harm.

Training and awareness are also important elements of our modern slavery response. Staff involved in hiring, procurement, and subcontractor management receive instruction on identifying indicators of exploitation and escalating concerns quickly. By maintaining vigilance, Man With A Van Isleworth strengthens its ability to protect vulnerable people and uphold ethical standards across daily operations.

We review this statement and our wider controls annually to ensure they remain effective and relevant. The annual review considers changes in legal expectations, business structure, and supply chain risk. It also allows us to measure progress, update procedures, and improve our approach where necessary.

This annual review is approved by senior management and informs future actions to reduce risk. Where new risks emerge, we will adapt our policies, enhance supplier oversight, and refresh staff training. Our aim is continuous improvement and lasting accountability.

Through this statement, Man With A Van Isleworth reaffirms its dedication to ethical business conduct, human dignity, and lawful practice. We will continue to monitor risk, challenge non-compliance, and promote fair working conditions in every part of our operation. Our modern slavery statement reflects a clear promise: exploitation has no place in our business or in the services we provide.
